Using the KS2 Framework

Intercultural Understanding
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.
International Exchange
This enjoyable activity contributes to children’s awareness and understanding of other cultures, traditions and languages. Year 2 children examine project work sent to them by children from their partner school in France, looking for similarities and differences between the cultures. The materials include authentic texts written by the French children.
