French – Curriculum intent
At Bryn St Peter’s C E Primary, our French curriculum aims to ensure that every child can begin their journey to communicate in another language, develop cultural understanding, and experience success.
The intent aligns with the National Curriculum for Languages and reflects the school’s Christian values of Faith, Love, Hope, Compassion, and Respect.
Implementation:
French is taught weekly in Key Stage 2 using the Catherine Cheater Scheme of Work.
Approaches to Teaching and Learning:
Lessons incorporate speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities.
Emphasis on oral work, repetition, and modelling.
Story-based and thematic learning through the Catherine Cheater resources.
Use of songs, games, role-play, and storytelling to support engagement
