Modern Foreign Langauge

At Tickford Park we aim to provide a broad and balanced languages education across Key Stage Two using the CPG+ French scheme which includes speaking, listening to, writing and reading French. Children learn about French culture through stories, songs and poems. 

Modern Foreign Language - Curriculum Intent

At Tickford Park we intend to give children the opportunities:
To develop an interest in learning other languages.


  • To introduce young children to another language in a way that is enjoyable and stimulating.
  • To encourage children’s confidence and creative skills.
  • To stimulate and encourage children’s curiosity about language.
  • To read fluently and understand the main points and some of the detail in short written texts.
  • To write imaginatively short texts on familiar topics and use knowledge of grammar to enhance or change the meaning of phrases.
  • To speak confidently: understand the main points in spoken language, give short talks and take part in conversations.
  • To understand a different culture and help children develop their awareness of cultural differences in other countries to our won.


We celebrate our children’s language and cultural heritage through our Diversity Week.
