Modern Foreign Languages (French)

At Barby Primary School, we aim to develop our children’s enjoyment and interest in learning other languages as well as developing their awareness of the cultural differences of other countries.

Our MFL curriculum is designed to progressively develop children skills in languages through regular, taught lessons. Children acquire, use and apply a growing bank of vocabulary organised around topics from the Catherine Cheater scheme of work. The curriculum enables our children to develop their skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing in French as well as offering opportunities to explore and understand aspects of French culture.
