Language Training
Date du début: 1 oct. 2014, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

As a result of the Scottish Government's new policy 'Language Learning in Scotland: A 1+2 Approach' which will be fully implemented by 2020, St John the Baptist school has initially enlisted the assistance of teachers to participate in a SLC/LFEE course. This course will be fully completed and complemented by the immersion course in Spain. As a follow-up the teachers will confidently implement and teach Spanish in accordance with the four capacities contained within the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence guidelines. Also, they will ultimately share their learning with others whom they will train as future facilitators of Spanish to pupils throughout the school. The techniques learned and used will be applied to other modern languages, such as French, since our pupils will be learning both languages. This will include both teaching the language, culture and geography and historical aspects of Spain/France. A variety of methodologies and strategies will be used and in particular the use of ICT to enhance the learning and teaching of Spanish. We will continue to use the resources on the platform provided by LFEE which will ensure our use of ICT with the pupils. We will use the methodology of active learning to involve and immerse our pupils in the language of Spanish. This will involve us making use of games and songs, especially in the early stages of primary school where we will concentrate on the talking and listening of the modern language. As our pupils become more confident we will ensure that they are using the four language skills of talking, listening, reading and writing. We will also follow the guidelines issued by Education Scotland that outlines exactly what material the pupils should be learning at each primary stage of school. At present Education Scotland has got P1 stage ready and is working on the other stages of primary school. Doing all of this will ensure that Spanish is embedded into the life of our school. Included in this are the parents who will be informed and given the opportunity to discover more about their child's learning in this area. At the same time, we intend to share our knowledge and good practice with other cluster schools in our network, other schools in Scotland via Education Scotland website and European colleagues via links established on immersion course and platform.
