French

At Pye Bank, Key Stage 2 pupils follow the Kapow Primary French scheme of work, which provides a structured and progressive curriculum. This is underpinned by three core strands of knowledge: phonics, vocabulary, and grammar, which collectively support the development of listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Lessons are designed to reflect contemporary contexts while also offering opportunities for pupils to explore the history, culture, and traditions of France. From Year 3 onwards, pupils are introduced to both cognates and near-cognates, enabling them to develop their translation skills and build confidence in applying their linguistic knowledge in a range of contexts. By the end of Year 6, pupils will have experienced cross-curricular and interactive language learning that fosters both engagement and an appreciation of cultural diversity.
