English and Portuguese are taught as languages across the early and middle years (5–9 and 10–13). In the upper years (14–15 and 16–18), English and Portuguese appear as Language & Literature, and a Range of Languages is listed for the final years. Within the Cambridge pathway, French, Spanish and Mandarin are offered as languages.
