restricting the amount of language learning they do. This is leading to a deficit in skills and qualifications for a generation that will need to reach out to the rest of the world post-Brexit. Dwindling GCSE uptake inModern Foreign Languages (MFL) can only be reversed if changes are made at Key Stage 1 and 2, according to a talk for teachers and parents at Language Show Live at London’s Olympia. Ofsted’s recent changes to the inspection framework mean that primary schools are now facing a “deep dive” intoMFL for the first time and are recogni sing that they may not being doing enough to prepare their pupils for secondary school and beyond.
Stuart Rubenstein, founder andManaging Director of Speak Like A Native, outlined in his talk how the average pupil at the average primary school spends just 1.4%of their school life in the language they are learning, which is most commonly French or Spanish. Schools in Europe aim for 50%and that gap leaves UK children unprepared for the future.
“Whether you’re a 0%school - and there are still plenty of them not delivering anyMFL - an average 1.4%school or buck the trend and expose your pupils to around 4%of their time in a new language, UK primaries are still a long way behind the rest of Europe,” say s Rubenstein.
“And school leaders can’t see a way out of
this because of limited budgets, full timetables and lack of specialist language teachers. This is why we have created the Child’s Language Journey, a vision and system that helps primary schools take steps over two or three years to increaseMFL exposure.”
