BESPOKE PROGRAMME

The Bespoke Programme - Rationale Enabling pupils to see languages ‘beyond the walls of the classroom’ Raising aspirations & broadening horizons for a cohort of WP pupils Aiming for the highest impact  intensive, multiple, sequential interventions

The Bespoke Programme – Example Content International student panel Presentation skills in action, with props! Trip to the French embassy in London Taster sessions in other languages French enrichment Building relationships with students and speakers of other languages Self defence in French with ‘Mad Max’ End of programme presentation day at school Exploring life on campus

Self-defence with ‘Mad Max’

The Bespoke Programme – Factors for Success Commitment from school Diverse & creative activities Energy & enthusiasm 4-5 sequential interventions linked to Key Stage 3+4 Building relationships & trust with pupils The Embassy! Collaboration

The Bespoke Programme – The Impact 2009 = 6 pupils taking GCSE French at Parkside School with the languages department in danger of closing Bespoke Language Programme 2012 = 30 pupils taking GCSE French, thriving languages community within school

The Bespoke Programme – The Impact “ It has been the most amazing project, not only in respect to the results – Parkside going from their French option in danger of disappearing from the curriculum to a now healthy class size, plus discussions to add Spanish to the provision – but also in the example of how collaboration can work. The way in which your team have worked with us has proven that when people are dedicated and committed, real success can be achieved. The programme has been exciting, innovative and challenging. Personally, this collaboration will be the standard by which I think collaboration should be measured.” Rachael Nicholls, Aimhigher Derbyshire
