We are delighted to announce that we
have won a European Award for Languages from CILT,
the National Centre for Languages.
Fifteen
outstanding language initiatives received the EU award
this year for their innovative approach to developing language skills in
the UK. |

Representatives from the Northumberland Languages
team went down to the
Millennium
Stadium in Cardiff on November 20th to receive the award for our
“Thinking and Learning through Fairytales and Fables” resources.
The project has grown naturally out of the
commitment of Northumberland schools to thinking for learning and we are
delighted that the judges recognise and endorse the value of this
approach in language learning.
