MFL - Modern Foreign Languages
Key Stage Two
Children in Key Stage 2 are studying French and benefit from specialist teaching. These French specialists ensure cognates, pronunciation and other fundamentals are in place so the children are ready to excel in languages when they head to high school.
Children are also taught about the cultural elements of France so they have greater awareness and appreciation for the traditions, lifestyle, people and places.

Key Stage 1 and Early Years
MFL is not a statutory subject for KS1 or EYFS but, our children are so enthusiastic, we ensure that they have French sessions with the specialist team.
They have lots of fun learning French in foundation stage and KS1 and have already learnt some of the basics:
- Bonjour (Hello)
- Comment ça va? (How are you?)
- Comment t'appelles tu? (What’s your name?)
- Quelle âge as tu? (How old are you?)
- Tu habite ou? (Where do you live?)
Our fabulous children know lots of French songs including:
Heads Shoulders Knees and Toes and they are also learning colours, numbers, foods and directions.
En fait nous sommes formidables, sans doute.
