Modern Foreign Languages
​Curriculum Overview

​Curriculum Overview ​

At Crumpsall Lane our MFL curriculum is designed to celebrate the children’s home languages and develop their overall language skills.  We encourage and promote a love of languages by taking part in a range of exciting activities, such as sharing story books, dictionary work, songs, games and special events. Our curriculum develops children’s core language skills which include listening, speaking, phonics, reading and writing in French.  We have chosen French due to its links with English and to support our main feeder high schools, which teach French in Y7. Through learning a foreign language, children are introduced to a new perception of the world, encouraging them to understand their own culture and that of others and to celebrate similarities and differences.

MFL Curriculum Coverage
We use a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to support our curriculum planning, which we adapt as required.  
​
Our units include all 12 points of the National Curriculum Programme of Study and we offer additional opportunities for foreign language immersion, for example on European Day of Languages in September and International Mother Language Day in February. 
Through our language teaching, we foster our pupils’ curiosity and deepen their understanding of the world, their French knowledge and skills and their overall love of languages.
