The school has taken its first independent steps in establishing and developing a link with a French school to bring about a European dimension well in advance of the new curriculum requirements by gaining the International Schools Award. However, the school has developed an aggressive school plan to broaden and deepen this dimension and after an internal review have identified a number of requirements or needs that this project would fulfill. The school Senior Leadership Team and Governors have reviewed the projects requisite skills needed to cover those needs and have identified the Modern Foreign Language (MFL) coordinator as the most appropriate person at this stage of the school's development plan to attend this course. It is the intention that the MFL coordinator will lead an engagement programme to fulfill the identified needs which will allow for subsequent teacher(s) to follow on this project at a later date. We plan to use the Erasmus+ funding to access quality language and methodology training in France. Whilst on the project the MFL lead will adopt the established programme identified by its partner P Q France Ltd. This programme will deliver shadowing of a French colleague, a minimum of 15 hours of contact time with native speakers, attendance at cultural events to develop and strengthen links with the French colleague, class and school in order that this European Dimension can be brought into the BAU activities at the home school. This project will deliver defined goals and its impact will be seen at a strategic level with intent seen in the School Plan and lesson planning. There will be tangible signs of success with evidence of language ladders in multiple classrooms in and outside the French department to show cross curriculum adoption. There will be colourful displays demonstrating international correspondence over an extended time-frame to show embedding of values and belief. The longer term effects of the school will be palpable as the role profile of the school as a beacon of Modern Foreign Languages will be evidenced by continued and strong links with multiple European schools. There will be a promotion of children into a higher educational establishment at an advanced level in order that they will be well placed to take part in wider more European culture.
