French at Beaminster St. Mary’s

At Beaminster St.Mary’s, we intend to inspire all pupils to have a desire and passion to learn a foreign language.

We hope to instill in our children, an understanding that by learning a foreign language, it supports a necessary part of being a member of a multi-cultural society, and broadens our children’s horizons as a global citizen.  

At Beaminster St Mary’s, we believe that a carefully planned and engaging language programme of study, should foster children's curiosity and deepen their understanding of the world. Through our high-quality teaching, we aim to stimulate and encourage children’s curiosity about language and creativity through exploration.

All of our subjects include the same curriculum drivers, these are:

Curiosity

Vocabulary

Worldly
