What is French?

In French we learn a language that is used in other countries. We learn to speak, read, listen and write in this language.

French at Cockton Hill Junior School:

Learning a foreign language is a lifelong skill that promotes and encourages broader cultural understanding and can lead to a huge range of opportunities as children grow up. Throughout school, children will study oracy, literacy and intercultural understanding in a wide variety of ways. A focus of this learning is phonics where pupils learn how phonemes are pronounced differently in another language. 

Here you will find our French curriculum overview as well as unit overviews. These show the key knowledge and skills for each unit as well as vocabulary learnt in each topic.
