This project consists of working towards the development of languages following the Scottish Governments languages 1+2 recommendations. The application is for one primary teacher from Stirches Primary School to take part in the immersion course to build up on the work started in Stirches and Newcatleton schools to implement French into the curriculum by 2020. The participant will take part in their own professional development prior to the course (learning key phrases, background reading, learning about the geography of the area they will be visiting). Whilst participating on the course, the activities will include speaking in the target language with native speakers, gaining resources and strategies for cross curricular approaches to teaching languages, developing a modern cultural awareness for the country being visited. All language skills learned on the course will be used to implement the national, local and schools plans for addressing the Languages 1+2 recommendations from the Scottish Government. The aims of this project are to develop staff ability and confidence in the teaching of French. This will in turn enhance the learning experience of the pupils in our schools allowing them to access languages from an earlier stage in their primary career. ICT will be used to enhance and support learning at all stages and will form a key area for how resources are shared and disseminated amongst staff in the schools and learning community. Getting pupils using ICT to communicate with other schools in the UK and abroad will widen their own cultural understanding. The long term objective is to equip our staff with the knowledge, confidence and skills to deliver an effective language progression for all pupils in our primary schools, raise attainment in languages and ensure that young people are able to access the best opportunities within language and the world of work beyond school.
