“One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.” – Frank Smith 

By delivering a high-quality education in Modern Foreign Languages, we equip our students with the opportunity to stand out from the crowd and thrive in an increasingly globalised world. 

We provide an ambitious and creative curriculum which equips students with skills for languages for life. The promotion of independent learning and teamwork inspires students with the confidence to pursue their studies and enables them to gain linguistic and transferable skills. Encouraging our students to excel by challenging themselves to reach further, through risk taking, instils a sense of resilience, so essential for future success in all fields. 

Our programmes of study place an importance on languages for all through enculturation, fostering an appreciation of diversity and a passion for the world that we share. Effective links with English grammar ensure that our students value their language as a medium to appreciate another. Through this awareness of language structure, students gain the knowledge to apply skills across the curriculum, such as analysis and evaluation of different sources and data, metacognitive strategies and memory techniques. 

The journey starts in Key Stage 3, where students learn a first foreign language, and then apply their emerging linguistic skills to an accelerated second foreign language course in year 8. We are proud of our commitment to languages for all at Key Stage 4 and students continue their language journey through to Key Stage 5, leaving with the ability to communicate confidently and fluently. 

At the Langton Language Centre, it is our ambition to continue to cultivate confident linguists for the 21st Century, not only with our three main curriculum languages, but also with an array of other world languages and  extra-curricular opportunities, a truly unique offer stretching way beyond traditional MFL curriculums. 

“If you talk to someone in a language they understand, that goes to their head. If you talk to them in their language, that goes to their heart.” – Nelson Mandela
