At Unity Academy, French is taught throughout Key Stage 2 by a specialist language teacher. The children don’t just learn to speak a language; they develop a deeper understanding of the world and other cultures too. This is achieved through weekly sessions involving speaking, listening and building up vocabulary, ready to write. Lessons are exciting and interesting with all children participating. We at Unity believe that fostering a love of language learning at an early age prepares children for their future language learning in Secondary school.
In secondary school, students learn French throughout Year 7, 8 and 9 before taking their options at the end of Key Stage 3. They continue to study the language through the medium of speaking, listening, reading and writing in readiness for the GCSE examination at the end of Year 11.
