French
The National Curriculum statutory requirement from September 2014 asks Key stage 2 pupils and teachers to focus on making substantial progress in at least one modern or ancient foreign language.
Languages are not a compulsory subject in maintained schools at KS1 but are compulsory in KS2 and KS3. Teaching may be of any modern or ancient foreign language, and should ‘lay the foundations’ for foreign language learning at KS3. The most successful language teaching is where it is integrated across the curriculum. There is no specific requirement with regard to the amount of time that should be spent on foreign language teaching.
