Modern Foreign Languages

“One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.” – Frank Smith

It is our intent at Riverside Primary School to provide all of our children with a high-quality education in French, which develops their love of learning about other languages and cultures.

We currently teach French, however we strive to provide children with opportunities to experience a range of other languages, this includes Makaton. It is our intention to ensure that by the end of our children’s primary education, they have acquired an understanding of both spoken and written French, confidence to speak in French with others and know how important other languages can be in their future.
