What is the background to primary language learning? What does language learning offer a primary school? How might I structure language learning in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)? How should I begin to offer language learning in KS1 and KS2? Where to next? How can I embed the language into the school day and the wider curriculum? How do I make sure I really challenge the older learners? How do I develop progression in the new National Curriculum? How do I know if the children are learning? How can I help them to progress smoothly to KS3? What does research tell us about the integration of languages into the curriculum?

Fully-updated in line with the new National Curriculum and Teachers' Standards, this Second Edition provides a coherent overview of teaching and learning languages, combining practical strategies for use in the classroom informed by theory and research.
