Languages

At Wombridge Primary we feel very strongly that learning a modern foreign language is a valuable and exciting opportunity for the children. French is taught across Key Stage 2 year groups.

We use Grammarsaurus to teach the progression of knowledge in French. It is important to teach French in Primary School as younger children are more open and receptive to language learning, and have an innate curiosity when learning a language, its new words and new sounds. They are confident, curious and less anxious learners. Learning a new language has also been shown to improve critical thinking skills and to enhance social skills.
