Pupils at Prince Edward Primary study French in Key Stage 2. The Governors at Prince Edward value the importance of a foreign language, the uses it will have on our pupils’ lives and how it will make them better citizens of the world. As a result, our pupils will only ever receive the best foreign language teaching. Every Key Stage 2 child will be taught for one session a week by a specialist French teacher provided by Lingotot. The pupils love it.
Our French teacher is Monsieur Jacques Barthelemy. He provides carefully planned sessions and build confidence in the pupils through:
- songs
- stories
- drama
- kinaesthetic activities
- speaking
- listening
- reading
- writing

“French is now being taught by a native French speaker. The children get the best possible tuition they could have.”
“French is great because you learn new things in many ways”
“I love French. Monsieur Barthelemy makes it fun and easy to learn”
“We sing songs, learn stories and we even know where to put the adjective and how that applies to all sentences. For example ‘le petit chaperon rouge'”
“Jacques assesses every child in every group. It’s consistent and accurate.”
“I think it’s great because if you go to another country like France, you will know what to say.”
“Monsieur Barthelemy makes it fun because we learn French by singing songs and doing actions to them.”
“I like hearing the interesting stories in French because Monsieur Barthelemy tries to make it as easy as possible to understand by using actions.”
