The purpose of the MFL curriculum: Our curriculum ensures that students are taught Spanish with a focus on the cornerstones of phonics, vocabulary and grammar. Students are exposed to a variety of spoken and written language, and are taught the skills required to understand and respond to that independently with increasing levels of accuracy. We strive to enable students to use Spanish in real life situations, by recognising and practising key elements of language. In every lesson students practise phonics, vocabulary and grammar to develop their understanding of Spanish and to provide them with the skills that they need to speak and write to communicate effectively.
