Modern Foreign Languages
At Orchard Vale Community School we use ‘Language Angels’ to deliver Modern Foreign Languages (MFL). www.languageangels.com.
We use Language Angels because it provides a high-quality, fully curriculum-aligned scheme of work designed specifically for primary schools.
The platform offers ready-to-teach units, complete with native-speaker audio, interactive whiteboard materials, and clear progression through KS2, ensuring that every child can build strong language foundations regardless of teacher specialism.
Language Angels also enables us to offer a broad, vibrant and ambitious languages curriculum that inspires curiosity and helps pupils develop key skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing. These skills are taught progressively across the primary phase, supporting both linguistic development and wider academic attainment.
Another key reason we use the platform is that it reduces teacher workload by providing structured lessons, differentiated activities, and knowledge organisers that support both classroom teaching and pupil independence. This allows teachers to focus on high-quality delivery while ensuring consistency across classes.
Ultimately, Language Angels helps us deliver engaging, accessible and effective language learning for all pupils, fostering enthusiasm for languages and setting them up to become confident, life-long learners.
