French PPA Cover for Primary Schools

At English-French Language Academy, we specialise in delivering high-quality French lessons as PPA cover across Primary Schools, from Reception through to Year 6.

Our dedicated team of experienced French specialists ensure that children are immersed in a rich, engaging, and progressive language-learning experience that meets all National Curriculum requirements.

We offer a carefully structured Scheme of Work, fully aligned with the National Curriculum, and designed to support both single-year group classes and mixed-age classes. Whether you’re a small rural school or a large urban academy, we adapt to your unique structure while maintaining progression and consistency.

Each lesson is built around clear key knowledge, age-appropriate vocabulary, and core language skills – Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing—ensuring pupils develop strong foundations in French.

Our lessons are not only educational, but fun, interactive, and inclusive. We use songs, stories, games, and cultural activities to bring French to life, boosting children’s confidence, curiosity, and communication skills.

Schools regularly tell us that pupils look forward to their French lessons each week.

Our team manages all planning, delivery, and resources, making it completely stress free for schools. You’ll also receive regular updates on pupil progress and engagement, helping you monitor impact and celebrate success.

French Lunchtime Club

Bring a little ‘Joie de vivre!’ to your school’s lunch break! Our Club offer a fun, informal way for pupils to explore French beyond the classroom.

Lunchtime Club is a safe and friendly space where children can relax and enjoy their break together. Around 15 children can join – This smaller setting makes it easier for everyone to feel comfortable, included, and able to take part.

This Club is open to all year groups and is perfect for language lovers, curious minds, and pupils who want to experience French in a fun interactive way.

Each session includes games, songs, storytelling, mini role plays, and themed
activities that build vocabulary and boost confidence. Whether it is learning how to order in a French café or exploring the sights of Paris through art and drama, our lunchtime Club is the perfect cultural enrichment opportunity.

French after-school Club

Our French after-school Club offers a dynamic and exciting way for children to dive deeper into language learning. Structured around weekly themes, this club expands on the Curriculum with creative projects, cultural experiences, and real-world language use.

Children might find themselves writing short postcards in French, participating in simple conversations, learning French songs and rhymes, or exploring the French culture. The emphasis is on confidence, creativity, and enjoyment—all while reinforcing the skills taught in the school day.
