Pathway
The knowledge and skills acquired through learning a language can also support and enrich other subjects, such as history, law, business studies, social sciences, health and education, among others. Developing proficiency and cross-cultural skills in languages is a career advantage as our country continues to diversify culturally and welcomes growing numbers of tourists, students and migrants from other countries. Students with a language other than English play an important role in local tourism and New Zealand’s export business. The cross-cultural and communicative competence coming from language learning is an advantage for students who go on to study or work overseas, where competition for jobs is fierce.
