@RachelHawkes60@VEverettmfl Teaching phonics since year 7 had a profound effect on our French reading and listening results last summer. There was no dictation / reading aloud when we designed our curriculum - so important to teach it!
Cardinal Hume was judged outstanding in all areas by Ofsted in our 2024 inspection
Excellent schools are founded on partnership and we are pleased that the contributions of our students, staff and families have been recognised. They are a credit to our school and wider community
Students from Cardinal Hume have joined other schools across the North East to showcase the cultural and linguistic diversity across the region, by sharing their languages and heritage through poems, song lyrics or remembered pieces in their home language
