The subject lead for French at Darwen St James is Mrs Matthews.

At Darwen St James our intent is to deliver a Modern Foreign Languages curriculum that fosters our pupil's curiosity in order to deepen their understanding of the wider world. Through studying a modern foreign language, our pupils will develop their ability and ambition to communicate with native speakers in speech and writing. Whilst also broadening the pupils horizons and encouraging them to step beyond familiar cultural boundaries and develop new ways of seeing the world.

We endeavour to provide every Key Stage 2 child with a wealth of experiences that will allow them to develop the ability to communicate effectively, not only in spoken French, but also through reading, writing and listening. MFL teaching will provide the foundation for our pupils to become language learners, equipping them with skills that will allow them to study and learn other languages.
