Languages
At Barnsbury Primary School and Nursery, we want to promote interest and curiosity in the wider world and foster a sense of international identity. We celebrate diversity and encourage children to be part of our multi-lingual community. Our aim is for the children to gain a love of language learning, and to recognise the advantages of speaking a foreign language. Through our languages curriculum, we provide ways for children to develop confidence and communicate in spoken and written French. Barnsbury pupils are also given the opportunity to experience authentic communication with French children through our international link with a French school. We aim to send our children to secondary school with the skills they need to continue language learning.
