Two-thirds of secondary state schools in England teach just one #ModernForeignLanguage according to our latest Language Trends report. We went to a school in Leeds, where pupils learn a range of languages, to ask why they're beneficial. And we did it #WesAnderson style. #MFL

At the heart of the Toolkit is our Model for Great Teaching - the things teachers know, do and believe that research has shown to make the biggest difference to student learning. It can be thought of as a curriculum for teacher learning.
