We began teaching Spanish in KS2 along with other schools in Hackney when language learning became statutory for primary schools. The development of Spanish teaching in our school has been supported through regular contact with the borough language co-ordinator. It has also been enhanced by a collaborative community of language practitioners in our network who share best practice. In our school, it is inspirational to see how quickly the children have welcomed Spanish visitors to our school on our Hispanic Day, learned new vocabulary with our Spanish language assistant, perfected their accents and developed a sense of pride in language learning. There is a huge appetite for learning about other cultures and languages at our school. We need to develop cultural awareness and empower our pupils with the Prevent and Rights Respecting programme. " We believe in our role in shaping future communities and aim to ensure our children leave here as happy, successful individuals – sociable, thoughtful, confident, and equipped with the skills they need to do the best they can in their immediate environment and the wider world" (Website Statement). The ERASMUS+ will support us in our goals. In order that the project is manageable and sustainable for our staff, the objectives of our ERASMUS+ project are in agreement with our School Development Plan, and existing individual "coaching and learning plans" Our school has actively sought extensive feedback and analysis from pupils, teachers, SIP reviews and research through "Visible Learning". From this we have planned compatible targets and awards in our EDP to meet our goals. We expect to increase staff and pupil confidence with Spanish language, their leadership skills and become an "international school" exploring different cultures in lessons and events. We are applying for 12 participants attending the training. These will include AHT, MFL co-ordinator, subject leaders, members of KS1 and EYFS (these are not mutually-exclusive) and staff wishing to develop their leadership capacity. Activities enabled by the ERASMUS+ will include: forging a strong sustainable relationship with our partner school for learning opportunities needed for pupils e.g. writing for purpose, sharing our best practice of ASPIRE with our partner school in relation to the background of our pupils, furthering collaborating links with schools in the Hackney Spanish Network, exchanging videos of cultural assemblies and events with our partner school, leadership development for key members of staff, observing CLIL teaching methods and pupil involvement in Spain, disseminating their approaches to staff, developing cultural understanding at a more personalised level for each child and teacher across the school.We will use methodology with prior success in our school. We will use targets, success criteria and SMART targets as used in our individual "coaching and learning plans" to write participants targets for the project and consider the impact on learning in our school. Monitoring of the project is through our International Learning Party and overseen by the AHT. Each participant has a learning mentor with whom to review targets. Each staff member will have a language coach and CPD is disseminated through our weekly CPD meetings.We hope that pupils and staff have the experience that learning about other cultures and languages is a real and not just a subject. That it opens up opportunities, improves opportunities for careers, friendships, and can change perspectives.
