Improving German take-up

 

Project description

Pupils in Y7 had been required to opt for French or German at the outset. Numbers electing for German had been declining for three years. From this September all Y7 pupils studied both French and German for half the first term before electing to specialise. The results are that we have 49 opting for German compared with 22 three years ago.

Benefits

Pupils can now elect their MFL specialism from a position of strength.
