Intent

French is an entitlement for our pupils and accessible to all.

At Kessingland Church of England Primary Academy, our MFL curriculum aims to provide all pupils with a high-quality foreign language education that engrosses and inspires children to develop a life-long love of language. The curriculum provides opportunities for children to build and develop the skills needed to effectively communicate in French for practical purposes, using both written and spoken French. At our school, we follow a broad and balanced French curriculum that scaffolds previous learning and provides both support and challenge for all learners. We want our children to celebrate and welcome differences in our world, as it is vital they have an understanding of different languages and countries. By exposing our children to this they will have an ability to show respect and become a valuable member of our global society.
