The three primary schools taking part in this project are from similar backgrounds and face similar challenges in educating pupils from diverse backgrounds. Our two-year project will allow us to develop and exchange best practice and pedagogy in the teaching & learning of languages. We wish to adopt a more informal and creative approach in our pedagogy for the teaching & learning of MFL. This is so we can excite, enthuse our less academic and disadvantaged pupils. Improve attendance, behaviour and raise standards across the board. We have chosen Music and Art as the main curricular area as this a universal language and will easily lend itself to our aim of inclusion. By sharing our expertise across all partner schools we aim to raise the quality of teaching and be innovative. This will impact on all pupils, other areas of the curriculum and improve results.Our project partners are 2 schools from the North Liverpool area, and 1 from Madrid.Northwood Community Primary school have partnered Ceip Antonio Fontan, Madrid for 4 years. The teachers from the Spanish school have on 2 occasions visited Northwood. St Michael’s and All Angels have recently changed the teaching of French to Spanish. As the two UK schools are in close proximity and have worked together on other activities, so it seemed a natural progression to be included in this project.This is a 2-year project – Short Term Training event with three gatherings plus 2 pupil visits over the whole project. Each school will have a core of 4/5 staff involved and 10 pupils. The teams of teachers will include MFL lead, SLT, Music and Art teachers. The pupils will be aged 9/10 and will be selected using PP data and those WT at the end of Y4. The Spanish school will use their own internal data to identify their pupils. The first meeting will be to exchange ideas, resources and pedagogy. This will be followed by pupil exchange, then a teacher meeting to update the findings of the project, produce more resources ( National songs, artists, vocabulary games, history of local musicians and artists ) and share best practice. This will be followed with the 2nd pupil exchange visit and then the final meeting will be to evaluate the whole project , further exchange of best practice and ensure each partner school has embedded new pedagogy into their curriculum at all levels.Approximately every 6 months there will be meetings to ensure the project remains on track, the new pedagogy of language learning is being rolled out across each school and to discuss the impact on the T&L. By having time in between each meeting allows each school the opportunity to develop the new skills and teaching styles across the whole school. We will share our findings, observe each other, team teach and create resources and take part in joint research during these meetings. We will then have joint evaluation to report and measure on the impact. All our resources, documents, research and findings will be found on eTwinning. In order to make this project equitable each school will have specific roles. This ensures all responsibilities are shared, e.g. safe guarding and risk assessments, eTwinning, producing resources, ways to disseminate each part of the project.Dissemination will take place locally at each school involving whole school, parents and governors. It will also take place Nationally and at European level by each partner school. We envisage the impact is to engage all pupils in a creative, fun MFL lessons which improve the pupil’s confidence, and competence which in turn will impact raise attainment in all areas. The long term benefits beyond the life of the project will be in the ongoing delivery of high quality teaching & learning of languages to pupils of all backgrounds - allowing them to access the curriculum and foster a love of language learning through the Arts. It is hoped that the local communities will be involved by the setting up of a community choir. This will involve parents, parishioners and other local community groups.
