Workshop

South West
Location: 
selected schools in the South West

We are pleased to confirm that we'll continue our language ambassadors' mentoring scheme at schools this year. Our undergraduate students from 5 partner universities (UWE, Bristol, Bath, Exeter and Plymouth), some of whom are native French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian and Mandarin Chinese speakers, come into schools for a maximum of 6 hours per week and work alongside the class teacher providing support during MFL lessons. In the case of the native speakers, they could be used almost as FLAs, whilst the undergraduate students could support individual pupils on a one-to-one basis or work with small groups. All the students will have received appropriate training and will have been CRB checked.

* This activity is offered to selected schools in the South West due to financial constraints *
