Course summary

Through studying a modern foreign language, Gunnersbury pupils develop their ability and ambition to communicate with native speakers in speech and writing. Learning French broadens our pupils’ horizons, encouraging them to step beyond familiar cultural boundaries and develop new ways of seeing the world. As they progress the pupils develop an awareness and understanding of the culture and identity of the countries and communities where the language is spoken. Studying a language at Gunnersbury opens up the world.
