Kapow Primary’s French scheme of work aims to instil a love of language learning and an awareness of other cultures. We want pupils to develop the confidence to communicate in French for practical purposes, using both written and spoken French. Through our scheme of work, we aim to give pupils a foundation for language learning that encourages and enables them to apply their skills to learning further languages, developing a strong understanding of the English language, facilitating future study and opening opportunities to study and work in other countries in the future.  Kapow Primary’s French scheme of work supports pupils to meet the national curriculum end of Key stage 2 attainment targets (there are no Key stage 1 attainment targets for Languages).

KS1 pupils are exposed to French language via stories. KS2 pupils receive an hour a week of explicit French instruction this is often broken into two shorter sessions.

Pupils all have access to Language Nut which is an online French tuition software. You can use this to top up your French grammar, vocabulary and writing. In addition any exposure to French stories or speech is helpful.
