Modern Foreign Languages – French

Intent

At Lakeside Primary Academy, we pride ourselves in being a multicultural school, where learning about different countries and cultures will help pupils to prepare for life in a multicultural world. We aim to engage and inspire children to have a love of learning about the world.

Our Modern Foreign Languages curriculum explores learning language skills with a focus on French. In Early Years and Key Stage 1, French is introduced through songs and games to engage pupils’ interest in French and its culture. In Key Stage 2, French is taught once a week with the aim to well equip pupils with the skills that they will need for Secondary Education. Constructing sentences and building on prior learning to give them a greater understanding of how to apply the language independently.
