At Bramingham Primary School, French is taught from Year 3 to Year 6 using the Grammarsaurus French Scheme, which provides a progressive and engaging curriculum that develops pupils' speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. Lessons are carefully sequenced to build upon prior learning, ensuring children revisit and embed key vocabulary, grammatical structures and language patterns over time. Through interactive activities, songs, games, discussions and practical communication tasks, pupils develop confidence in using French for real-life purposes.
The curriculum introduces children to a wide range of topics, enabling them to communicate information about themselves and the world around them whilst developing an understanding of French language and culture. As pupils progress through the school, they move from simple words and phrases to increasingly complex sentences and conversations. Regular opportunities to practise and apply previously taught language help children develop fluency, accuracy and confidence. By the end of Key Stage 2, pupils have a secure foundation in French and an appreciation of the value of learning languages in an increasingly connected world.
