Head of Modern Foreign Languages: Miss S Nicholls (snicholls@swr.gloucs.sch.uk)

Our intent:

“Spread your wings, you will have no idea how far you can fly”

Imagine living in a world where you can only speak to 1 in every 21 people or a world where everyone looks the same way, acts the same way, likes the same things. In MFL we promote a love of learning and curiosity, exposing learners to new countries, cultures, and languages. Learning another language develops literacy and oracy in both the target language and English, preparing students to succeed in a globalised society. We believe that language lessons, trips and extracurricular activities will broaden students’ horizons beyond familiar cultural boundaries – raising aspirations, developing collaborative skills, and creating resilient young adults.
