Vincent Costello, Churchdown Village Junior School

We’ve been using Maximum Classics for a year now and our teachers and children love it. The lessons are well planned with accessible resources so anyone can feel confident delivering them without feeling the stress that can go along with teaching a language that you don’t have much experience of using. We feel that using this scheme through KS2 helps to set our pupils up to begin learning a wide range of language at KS3, as well as supporting other areas of the curriculum such as elements of history and English. The in-built etymology is really valuable and looking at grammar through the lens of Latin really helps to support children’s understanding of SPaG in English. Children enjoy the lessons and again the barrier of speaking and accents is much lower due to the nature of learning a classical language.
