Modern Foreign Languages (MFL)

This year children from Classes 3 to 6 will continue learning Spanish together at Mowlem.
We will also be starting to teach children in Nursery, Reception, Class 1 and Class 2.
Our aim is to teach outstanding MFL lessons across the school over the next two years.

Spanish lessons are individually tailored to each group following the National Curriculum for MFL, the latest Schemes of Work from Ministerio de Cultura (Spain), 'Early Start' and a wide variety of media resources to enhance progress and to make possible outstanding learning in every single lesson.

We use Spanish every day during registration and children also use greetings in different languages across the school. At Mowlem we celebrate termly assemblies learning songs in Spanish and celebrate our cultural differences and the mosaic of languages we all bring into our school.

Intercultural understanding and knowledge about language are the main aims of our Modern Foreign Languages curriculum at Mowlem.

We know at Mowlem how important is for our children's future to have the opportunity to speak a variety of languages, giving them a great skill to access to the current global market and making possible a real life approach in all our lessons as a main purpose.

Children enjoy Spanish lessons, participating in competitions and learning about Spanish language and culture around the world.
