Secondary French
The benefits of studying Secondary French
Studying our Secondary French Homeschooling course (English National Curriculum Key Stage 3) is an ideal preparation for IGCSE French studies.
Communicating in French will help your child get to know the French people and the French culture. Learning another language, such as French, will open your child’s mind to new ideas and new ways of looking at the world.

I have taught French and Spanish in secondary schools for over 25 years. Learning a foreign language is an academic challenge in itself, but knowledge of a foreign language is a skill that can be useful whatever someone’s profession or path in life.

I believe language learning should be fun; it comes naturally to all of us, we have all done it in at least one language before! Learning a new language can open up a whole new world of conversations.

I started learning French at school, and I’ve loved languages ever since. I was excited by the idea that speaking someone else’s language helps you to understand how they think as well as what they say.
