Episode 210: This week on Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, I'm joined by primary teacher, Charle Benkowitz, as we delve into the teaching of modern foreign languages in UK schools. From systemic differences with European neighbours to the broader purpose of language learning, this episode offers insights into how we can elevate language education for primary students.

We discuss:

How UK schools compare with European counterparts in language education and the impact on proficiency.
The purpose of language learning for UK students in a globally English-speaking world.
Effective teaching strategies for language acquisition and how they could be implemented in UK primary schools.
The critical role of time allocation and curriculum design in achieving language learning success.

Whether you’re a language specialist or exploring ways to incorporate foreign languages into your teaching, this episode offers practical ideas and thought-provoking perspectives.
