During Black History Month, our pupils are learning about notable Black figures from French- and Spanish-speaking countries in their Languages lessons, allowing them to practise their language skills, discover new personalities and enrich their cultural knowledge. Where possible, this was delivered in the target language with scaffolding put in place to support comprehension.
These activities formed a part of our wider school Black History Month activities, examining European communities that are often overlooked in MFL classrooms in the UK and widening knowledge and understanding of the rich tapestry of cultures that make up modern Europe.
