St Jérome School officially recognised as an excellent school for the teaching and promotion of the French Language.

We are delighted to announce that we are the second school in the UK to be awarded the prestigious Label France Education for outstanding provision in the teaching of the French Language by the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs. This is an exceptionally important accolade and milestone in the development of our school. The award enables us to join a network of the best schools around the world teaching and promoting the French Language. Inspectors and government officials who visited the school in the summer term commented on the exceptional ease and fluency with which our children could speak, read and write in the French language. They noted the strong progress that was evident from Early Years to the end of Key Stage 1 and the way in which the children’s knowledge and understanding of French was also supporting their learning in English.

We are immensely proud of our children and the staff team who have worked tirelessly to ensure that all children are passionate and confident linguists.
