At Gosforth Park First School, we know that A high-quality languages education should foster pupils’ curiosity and deepen their understanding of the world. The teaching should enable pupils to express their ideas and thoughts in another language and to understand and respond to its speakers, both in speech and in writing. It should also provide opportunities for them to communicate for practical purposes, learn new ways of thinking and read great literature in the original language. Language teaching should provide the foundation for learning further languages, equipping pupils to study and work in other countries.

We are proud to be able to offer weekly Lingotots lessons in KS2 where every child will learn to speak Spanish. All schools within the Gosforth Schools Trust have chosen Spanish as their main taught language which means that the knowledge pupils gain at GPFS will be built on sequentially during their time at middle school.

Lingotots provide multi-award winning language classes. They say; 

Classes are interactive and fun, yet based on sound educational research. Learning is through songs, stories, games, drama and play. Children have so much fun they don’t realise they are learning!

We speak 100% in the foreign language but our skills and expertise ensure everyone understands. Following our carefully tried and tested methodology, you and your child could leave the very first class responding to the new language.
