French in our school.

Modern Foreign Languages at Coppice Primary

 

Intent

 

To develop a love of languages through the delivery and participation of an interactive, practical and engaging curriculum to inspire pupils to want to learn further languages later on in their education and lives for pleasure.

 

To acquire the knowledge and vocabulary required in a different language to build the foundations to have the ability and confidence needed to communicate across different countries independently.

 

To appreciate and learn about different cultures to inspire pupil’s curiosity to explore the world and give them the drive to want to travel, study or work in other countries.

 

Pupils will learn to communicate in a variety of ways effectively to give them an insight and analyse different cultures and values. Pupils will develop a curiosity and understanding of the wider world.
