Modern Foreign Language
By teaching children a Modern Foreign Language, we aim to develop positive attitudes, an enjoyment and an enthusiasm for learning other languages. In addition to this, pupils will be able to understand and respond to those who speak different languages and be able to communicate for practical purposes in the wider world.
The early exposure to a foreign language allows the skills and confidence in that language to be acquired at a faster rate, which helps to form a sound basis for further language learning at Key Stage 3 and beyond – it is widely believed that the early acquisition of a foreign language facilitates the learning of other foreign languages later in life.
