Brexit makes languages more essential to the UK, not less. Spanish opens up much of Latin America. French is a way in to North Africa & German is still the language of the UK’s 2nd biggest export market. If anything, languages are even more important now, whatever you want to do.

Year 10..... Have a fab week and your MFL teachers will see you bright and early on Thursday at 9am for your live lessons. We already can't wait! 🇩🇪🇨🇵🇪🇦

[Barr Beacon MFL @barrbeaconmfl]

Year 8 don't forget to complete your MFL assessment by 3pm on Friday. You can find the link in your Teams group. Good luck! If you have submitted your assessment, don't forget to check your email for your feedback. Well done to all those year 8 students who already submitted 👏

[Barr Beacon MFL @barrbeaconmfl]

Just popping by to share this wonderful work by Rumeesa in Year 7. Amazing work well done! @barrbeaconsch

[Barr Beacon MFL @barrbeaconmfl]

Welcome back @barrbeaconsch Year 10. Hope those of you that were in school today enjoyed being back. Although your MFL teachers won't be in classrooms with you, we can't wait to see you on your live lessons. Thursday 9am! See you there 🇩🇪🇨🇵🇪🇦

[Barr Beacon MFL @barrbeaconmfl]

The places you are studying and their culture. You should learn about the things that France and Germany are proud of, like their monuments, their singers, their artists and their cuisine! Hope you've all enjoyed the opportunity to do this 🇨🇵🇩🇪🇨🇵🇩🇪🇨🇵🇩🇪 @barrbeaconsch 2/2

[Barr Beacon MFL @barrbeaconmfl]

And that's it for now! If you have any more work then make sure you send it across to your MFL teachers. Being a good linguist is about more than speaking the language.... It is important you increase your cultural capital... That is the amount you know about the people and1/2
