French
Intent
At Cotmanhay Junior School, we aim to inspire a love of languages and develop children's confidence in communicating in French. Through engaging and interactive lessons, pupils will build their speaking, listening, reading and writing skills while gaining an understanding and appreciation of French culture. We want all children to leave primary school with the foundations needed to continue their language learning journey, becoming curious, confident and globally aware citizens.
In the 2026-27 school year, we have started to use the language angels scheme of work as a basis for learning. Due to the different units covered to those previously learnt, we have started all year groups from the start of the scheme. This will give children a firm and robust base to start their French journey throughout primary school and beyond.
