Vision 

At Catcott, teaching aspires to build a love of languages, make children curious about the world and create enthusiasm around language learning. We promote our core values of independence, resilience and thinking skills through languages, so learners are well-equipped to take their language learning into their futures. 

Rationale 

At Catcott, we deliver French via Kapow Primary’s French scheme of work. This scheme of work aims to inspire pupils to become curious, confident and enthusiastic language learners with a broad understanding of the French language and culture.

The intention is for pupils to develop the skills to listen, speak, read and write in French, while building the confidence to express themselves and explore new ways of thinking through language learning.

The scheme is designed to develop pupils’ understanding of how learning another language connects people, cultures, and communities worldwide. The aim is to encourage pupils to become open-minded, active citizens- who can appreciate diversity and engage meaningfully with the wider world.

The curriculum is designed to be both accessible and ambitious, ensuring that all pupils are supported to participate fully and achieve their potential.
