Modern Foreign Languages

All Modern Foreign Language teachers are committed to promoting excellence and to the great value of acquiring skills in foreign languages for students’ personal and academic development.

Our teaching gives equal weight to all four skills of Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing, and we seek to deliver teaching in the target language at all Key Stages. All languages also offer an exciting enrichment programme including extension lessons, trips and theatre and cultural visits. The German and Spanish departments also run an annual exchange programme which offers students the chance to experience family life in the respective country and to immerse themselves in the language and culture.
