Modern Languages Department

The Modern Language department has a team of six teachers and three foreign language assistants from France, Germany and Cuba.
Our aim is to make foreign language learning an enjoyable, intellectually stimulating and successful experience, offering insights into the culture and civilisation of the foreign language countries and ultimately teaching the girls practical communication skills for further study, work and leisure abroad.

Top Linguist: Rebecca Beattie who is studying French and Spanish at Keble college, Oxford was placed First in NI in A’ level Spanish in summer 2011 examinations. She also received the Modern Language Association of Northern Ireland’s Weil award for scoring the highest combined marks in A’ level French and Spanish. We are very proud of Rebecca’s hard work and success and wish her well with her future studies.
