At Our Lady and St Paul’s, we believe that nurturing an appreciation of diversity and cultural richness is essential in shaping well-rounded, compassionate individuals. To enable our children to celebrate and welcome differences in our world, it is vital that they develop an understanding of other languages, cultures, and countries. By fostering this awareness, we help our pupils build empathy, broaden their perspectives, and cultivate a respect for all people, empowering them to play an active and valuable role in our interconnected global society.

Our Modern Foreign Languages (MFL) curriculum is a cornerstone of this vision. Through engaging lessons and immersive experiences, we aim to ignite a lifelong love of language learning, inspiring curiosity and enthusiasm for communication beyond borders. Whether it is through exploring new vocabulary, understanding cultural traditions, or appreciating the beauty of different forms of expression, our pupils are encouraged to see language as a bridge to deeper connections with others.

At Our Lady and St Paul’s, we are committed to providing rich, meaningful language opportunities that not only develop linguistic skills but also foster confidence and a sense of belonging in a multicultural world. By embedding these values in our MFL curriculum, we equip our children with the tools they need to thrive, collaborate, and contribute positively to a diverse and ever-changing world. In doing so, we guide them on their journey of lifelong learning and global citizenship, rooted in respect, curiosity, and love for others.
