At Hotwells, the language we learn in Key Stage 2 is French and this is taught following the CUSP French Curriculum. Children learn French from Year 3 to Year 6.

The curriculum we follow has been designed as a spiral curriculum so that pupils revisit key vocabulary and grammar concepts again and again; each time vocabulary or grammar learning is revisited, it is covered with greater depth; prior knowledge is revisited so pupils can build on previous foundations, rather than starting again.  We know this is how children learn best, enabling them to learn more and remember more.
