Modern Foreign Languages (MFL)
Intent
The aim of our Languages curriculum is to:
- Give children the opportunity to speak and listen in another language.
- Develop children’s cultural awareness of a different country where English is not the first language.
- Ensure that children have the confidence, knowledge and skills to converse on a basic level in another language and the desire to develop this further.
