Spanish Diploma Program Launched at Steinmühle

Eleventh-grade students Chantal Boßhammer, Marie Bastian, and Melina Busch (pictured, from left) are the first to have taken the Instituto Cervantes exam to earn the DELE Spanish diploma. DELE stands for Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera. The program was presented to 10th-grade students in 2018 and subsequently introduced during the second and third terms.

The three students’ strong performance has led to excellent results. They have all received the official DELE A.2 diploma. “We congratulate them wholeheartedly and encourage other students to give it a try as well,” say Spanish teachers María Ramos and Mar Montenegro. “Steinmühle is an international school, and we look forward to preparing our students for the world and, in particular, for the requirements of the European Union.”

The DELE A2 exam consists of various components, which are divided into two groups: reading and writing skills on the one hand, and oral language skills, including listening comprehension, on the other.
