Foreign Languages (French)

At Bridgewater Park, we have chosen to study French and use Kapow for our curriculum and to support our teaching and learning of the subject.   

Although Foreign Languages are only compulsory at Key Stage 2, we believe that our children in Early Years and Key Stage 1 should be pre-exposed to foreign language learning in order to nurture their curiosity about the world in which they live, in addition to fostering their social and emotional development.  Children in KS1 are therefore introduced to: greetings, days of the week, colours, numbers and animals.

As children move into KS2 they receive regular French lessons as they follow our progressive curriculum.
