Just that really. Do primary schools have to teach a language in order to meet the national curriculum? If so does it apply to KS1 & KS2?

Thanks

Thank you. Can't complain it has been pulled then and I now have to pay for French in the lunch break!

Ah! Sorry. It'll be back in a year and half from the looks of it, so wondered why they bothered pulling it?! Bonne chance and all that! Smile
