Geography - our students  take part in activities and find out information about our local area as well as some investigative learning on why Jungles are wet and deserts are dry.  They look at maps from all over the world and identify countries, continents and oceans.  There is also additional information and facts on climate change and the impact which the Corona-virus has had on it.  To find out more about Geography here at Brompton-Westbrook look at our useful curriculum overview.

Adaptations will often need to be made to meet children's needs.  Please click here to see our Adaptive plan for the teaching of geography.

Modern foreign languages (MFL) -  Bonjour!  We have changed our MFL curriculum and now teach 1 language - French - so children make substantial progress and increase fluency.  A 3 year rolling programme has been put inplace to increase confidence and language skills.  We are currently on year 1.  At home it is worth looking at Duolingo app which is free and is valuable for consolidating the children’s understanding of the French language.  To find out more about the teaching of French look at our useful curriculum overview.

Adaptations are often needed to meet children's needs whilst they are learning a new language - in some cases at this school their 3rd or 4th.  Please click here to see our Adaptive plan for the teaching of MFL.

Please remember that if your child would like to continue practicing French at home, school has a subscription with Linguafun - information including log-ons and passwords are in our newsletter.
