Languages

In the Early Years Foundation Stage and in Key Stage 1 we encourage children to listen and respond to games, songs, rhymes and familiar stories in different languages.

We ensure every child has the opportunity throughout Key Stage 2 to study a foreign language and develop their interest in the culture of other nations. In Key Stage 2 we teach French in Years 3 and Year 4 and Mandarin in Years 5 and 6. We have specialist teachers in both languages who deliver lessons to all our pupils.
