Our MFL curriculum design is progressive; it develops children’s skills in languages, through regular taught lessons.

Pupils are taught to use and apply a growing bank of vocabulary organised around topics.

The national curriculum for languages aims to ensure that all pupils:

• understand and respond to spoken and written language from a variety of authentic sources
• speak with increasing confidence, fluency and spontaneity, finding ways of communicating what they want to say, including through discussion and asking questions, and continually improving the accuracy of their pronunciation and intonation
• can write at varying length, for different purposes and audiences, using the variety of grammatical structures that they have learned
• discover and develop an appreciation of a range of writing in the language studied
