Modern Foreign Languages (MFL) Champion

Mrs. Collingwood is our subject champion for Modern Foreign Languages here at Lane End. She has a clear vision for this area of the curriculum in our primary  school - and is committed to broadening pupils’ understanding of the Spanish language and Spanish culture. Children will develop strong life-long linguistic skills within an enriched learning environment. 

She has thought carefully about the design of the Lane End MFL curriculum and has built learning themes and topics that are to be taught in each year group which cover all aspects of the National Curriculum and meets the needs of our learners.  

Our children will learn a breadth of MFL based knowledge and acquire a deepened vocabulary and understanding by building on vocabulary learnt in each topic so the children can converse in depth. A written piece will show the children's understanding at the end of each topic. Children will develop and apply their skills as linguists as they move through the school.

Mrs. Collingwood's vision is to continually improve standards through an engaging and challenging curriculum which values the strengths of all and celebrates success.  Competency in a foreign language unlocks the technological, enterprise and vocational abilities which enhance the employability skills of our pupils.  Mrs. Collingwood aims to promote cultural awareness and develop our young people into global citizens of the 21^st century.

Below is the broad overview of our Lane End MFL curriculum which is currently under review.
