Welcome to the MFL Department

The MFL department seeks to develop lively and enquiring minds in our students ready to acquire knowledge using skills of intellect and creativity from KS3, GCSE through to KS5. 

We encourage the students to foster positive attitudes towards foreign language learning and other cultures, whilst supporting and improving their literacy and numeracy skills for effective communication that will stand them in good stead for further study, employment and adult life.

Lessons are varied using interactive activities, pair and group work. We use traditional as well as online resources to focus on vocabulary learning, grammar, new patterns and translation. Our course delivers the breadth and rigour required to develop the productive skills students need to manipulate language confidently and to prepare them for their exam. We provide a differentiated approach (Foundation and Higher Student Books) to help support our mixed-ability classes, and facilitate co-teaching and flexibility.
