Overview<\/h3>\n

Bienvenue!\u00a0 \u00a1Bienvenidos!\u00a0 Khush am deed!\u00a0 Welcome!<\/p>\n

Learning Modern Languages at Woodfarm High School gives all young people the opportunity to experience a range of Modern Languages and learn about a variety of cultures. We aim to promote the school values of curiosity, belonging, ambition and respect through learning experiences that allow students to develop their global citizenship and skills specific to modern languages learning that will also empower them in life and the world of work. In life, everyone needs to be able to communicate effectively and learning any modern language will boost our young people\u2019s ability to listen to others, select pertinent information when reading text, talk effectively with others and write short texts with care and attention to detail. In short, we work to enhance social and interpersonal skills in learning how to cope with everyday situations and how to listen to and work with others. We have a clear role to play in boosting student\u2019s literacy skills and our topics help to encourage learners to think about their health and wellbeing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The faculty aims to develop a growth mind set in learners. Critical thinking and problem solving skills are developed through reading and listening tasks. We foster independent thinking, creativity and teamwork whilst developing talking skills. Through a combination of skill development and topic coverage, the Modern Languages faculty hopes to encourage empathy and tolerance in students as we develop their understanding of different countries, cultures and backgrounds. Our range of courses offer opportunity for all; we want to enable students to enjoy success and achieve their full potential.\u00a0 Furthermore, we encourage the study skills of memorising, analysing, selecting, extracting and noting detail and reporting.<\/p>\n

Finally, the Modern Languages faculty aims to promote an interest in languages leading to enjoyment and appreciation of language in general.\u00a0 We strive to provide pupils with the necessary skills to undertake National Qualifications at the appropriate level and to prepare them for adult life, employment, further education or training.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
