Spanish in primary school introduces young learners to a new language and culture, fostering an early interest in language learning. Key Stage 2 pupils receive structured Spanish lessons, where they develop foundational skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing through engaging activities, games, and songs. To spark an early interest and create a positive association with language learning, EYFS children and Key Stage 1 pupils participate in taster mini-Spanish sessions throughout the year, experiencing the sounds of the language and basic vocabulary through playful and interactive experiences.
Our Spanish policy outlines the provision for Spanish language learning across the school, from the early introduction of language through taster sessions to the more structured lessons in Key Stage 2.
Our Spanish long term plan for Key Stage 2 ensures that pupils build on their knowledge of the Spanish language and grammar as they progress through Key Stage 2.
