Our Intent

Speaking another language offers children many exciting opportunities in life. The teaching and learning of modern foreign languages should encourage them to explore this through the exposure to the numerous languages and cultures of the world.

In weekly classroom lessons in Key Stage 2, teaching enables children to be able to express their thoughts in French, both through speech and writing. Pupils will be provided with opportunities to communicate for practical purposes, seeing the real life links to their classroom learning.  

Children have the opportunity to gain new knowledge every lesson with a new learning question. Each will build not only vocabulary but cultural understanding. It is our vision that the more years they have studied French, the greater their knowledge of the language becomes and therefore they can become increasingly creative and independent with their language use.
