French At St'Anne's
Intent/What we aim to do through our MFL Curriculum
At St. Anne's, the intention of our MFL curriculum is to develop an interest in and thirst for learning other languages. We aim to introduce the learning of the French language and the understanding of its culture in enjoyable and stimulating ways. We hope to embed the essential skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing. We aim to build the children’s ‘culture capital’ so that they are aware of similarities and differences between cultures. In short, we hope to lay the foundations for future language learning.
Adaptations are made to MFL lessons to ensure that all children are able to access the curriculum and are not disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disability.
Implementation/How we teach MFL
Our MFL curriculum has been designed to progressively develop skills in French, ensuring children acquire a bank of vocabulary organized around topics. We ensure development is progressive as they build on previous knowledge from units already studied.
All children in KS2 are taught French in a weekly discreet lesson. This is delivered by Mrs Liarakou.
KS1 children are introduced to MFL through exploring other languages informally when studying another country or different cultures.
