At Grafton Primary School, we want our young learners to be well prepared for language learning throughout their lives, enjoy their experiences of a new language and culture, and develop their language learning skills within a creative and rich context.

Our vision is firmly linked to the KS2 Programme of Study for Languages, where we aim to “provide an appropriate balance of spoken and written language and should lay the foundations for further foreign language teaching at Key Stage 3. It should enable pupils to understand and communicate ideas, facts and feelings in speech and writing, focused on familiar and routine matters, using their knowledge of phonology, grammatical structures and vocabulary.”
