MFL
"There are incredible psychological benefits of learning another language. Pupils outscore their non-foreign language learning peers in verbal and maths tests, indicating that learning an additional language is a cognitive activity not just a linguistic one.
Children who grow up learning about languages develop empathy for others and a curiosity for different cultures and ideas. Furthermore, in later years, career opportunities increase for those with additional languages to offer"
At Chetywnd we start the term with a whole day of immersing the children in French.
In addition to this, we offer a weekly Club from a French Specialist.
Further, teachers will take various opportunities during the school day to use the French language.
E.g.
Merci Thank you.
Si vous plait Please.
Ouvre la pate si vous plait Open the door please etc.
