Intent
Our Intent
Through our MFL curriculum at Sidmouth College we ensure that students develop and practise their knowledge of French or German.
We follow an engaging and culturally enriching curriculum incorporating the different skills required for learning a language.
We foster pupils who are independent and curious and who have the skills and confidence to learn any language needed in their career.
Our intent is to instil confidence and enrich vocabulary thus developing oracy and widening horizons for all.
Regardless of ability or background all students have an entitlement to experience the enjoyment of learning a language.
Our vision is that all pupils in Yr 9 are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed for at least a grade 4 at GCSE
At Key Stage 4 we build on the strong foundation and enter the vast majority of pupils at Higher Level.

Impact
The percentages below show the sustained improvement over the last four years.
They represent the percentage of pupils achieving each band of grades. For example, 2019 saw 20% of students entered for French achieving a grade 7,8 or 9.
Grade 4 is considered a pass and Grade 5 a strong pass.
Grades 7-9 are the strongest grades.
