"A liberation from insularity, providing an opening to other cultures.” National Curriculum
Our vision for Languages is that the learning of a language helps to equip pupils with the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life. It encourages children to appreciate and celebrate difference and provides the foundation for learning further languages. It should enable pupils to study and work in other countries.
At Moorsway, we know that the study of a modern foreign language enhances children’s literacy, self-confidence and broader cultural understanding. Our ambition to embed language learning within our curriculum is born of the statutory commitment in the National Curriculum to give every child between the ages of 7 and 11 the opportunity to learn a new language.
