Intent
The MFL curriculum in Whitley Academy provides students with the ability to communicate and interact in a foreign language in a variety of contexts. The curriculum explores cultural aspects of the Language. It also aims to apply problem solving skills when coping with the “unknown”. Ultimately, in MFL, students will improve their confidence as individuals, challenge themselves and develop their understanding of the world.

- Each scheme of work and lesson is designed to draw upon previous learning in order to progress further.
- A robust collection of lessons using responsive teaching and regular assessments to help students reflect
- Systematic quality assurance approach to ensure the maximum impact of student knowledge and progress.
Impact
