What is French?
French allows the children to learn a modern foreign language that sets the foundations for further foreign language teaching at key stage 3. The teaching provides an appropriate balance of spoken and written language; enabling pupils to express their ideas and thoughts in French and to understand and respond to its speakers, both in speech and in writing.
