Welcome to the Modern Foreign Language Department
The Department of Modern Languages offers students the opportunity to study either French, Spanish or Urdu as an enjoyable experience and worthwhile challenge.
As well as studying a language, pupils will gain a more international outlook by learning about the people and cultures of other countries.
Language training also develops many useful skills, such as the ability to communicate clearly, being confident speaking in public, and using problem-solving strategies.
