By offering more opportunities for speaking and listening within a totally immersive setting, our language programmes cover more of the aims of the MFL national curriculum than a traditional school trip. Use these teacher resources to demonstrate how your proposed school trip supports the MFL curriculum outcomes.
By aligning your school trip to the MFL curriculum you can:
Use the resources below to demonstrate how our immersive residentials and escorted trips align the content of our immersive language programmes to the MFL curriculum at Key Stage 2, 3 and 4.
Our premier language immersion programmes align with specific topics and themes in the AQA and Edexcel specifications for French, German and Spanish. Read more about how our residentials and escorted trips can provide invaluable preparation for the new GCSE.
A fundamental aspect of our language programmes is immersive learning. Students on these unique programmes are led entirely in the target language by our native-speaking instructors on a range of activities, be it a cooking a local dish, building a raft or buying picnic ingredients at the market. Watch a video of our animateurs explaining the principles of language immersion.
This highly effective approach promotes the application of new vocabulary and understanding through discussion and questioning. Resulting in 95% of MFL teachers reporting good or very good progress in students' understanding and confidence. Read our study on the learning benefits of language immersion programmes.
Unlike a typical school trip to France, Spain or Germany, our programmes truly immerse learners with native speaking instructors to lead all activities and excursions, giving students authentic exposure to the language during their time with us.
