To inspire all our young people at Wortham Primary School to provide a stimulating experience for learning French in class and around the school throughout their time at Wortham Primary school.
We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded the Linguamarque Gold Mark Award in July 2019.
Suffolk Linguamarque is an initiative aiming to support schools in the teaching and learning of Primary Languages such as French, Spanish & German. It provides schools with a structured approach to support the development of Primary Languages within the curriculum, in line with the government's recommendations and Programme of Studies. It encompasses all the best practice developed locally and nationally, along with a methodology to benchmark and define achievement in Primary Languages.

The children from Hede visited the school for the day, while they are staying with their 'twinned' families.
The school hosted a group of children from Belarus, they were staying with some local families and wanted to experience what it was like in an English school. Although the children spoke very little English, the children enjoyed their day taking part in sports and talking about their lives in Belarus.
Each week one child from each class is asked to be the ambassador for that week. – their responsibilities include: displaying the date; the correct weather forecast and playing the song of the week during registration.
