Our year 9 second language students (Spanish and German) are currently embarking on the BA Flag Award course which was designed by BA to help educate students in the necessary language required to gain employment within the travel industry. BA and Heathrow, two of the largest employers in that industry, were, at one time, having to look abroad for suitable candidates that had the necessary linguistic skills to employ. The BA Flag Award was produced in an effort to be able to find suitable candidates from the UK itself. The Flag Award for Schools is therefore based on the Internal Flag Tests developed for staff at British Airways. We, at the Weald of Kent, are proud to be providing our students with the opportunity to gain such an employment relevant qualification.
Good luck!
The MFL Team.
