Using the KS2 Framework
The Key Stage 2 Framework for Languages sets out the rationale for language learning in primary schools and defines the skills, knowledge and understanding that children should develop as they begin their language learning apprenticeship. The Framework is based on sound principles of primary pedagogy. It sets out learning objectives across five strands, Oracy, Literacy, Intercultural Understanding, Knowledge about Language and Language Learning Strategies. It is inclusive and for all children. It recognises that language is central to the development of individual identity and that education in language and culture plays a vital part in shaping the future of our world community.
Please select from the strands listed on the left-hand navigation bar.
