Comments on: Feature on foreign languages – is English enough? 2010/10/22/feature-on-foreign-languages-is-english-enough/ London MEP European Parliament Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:57:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Martin 2010/10/22/feature-on-foreign-languages-is-english-enough/#comment-3136 Fri, 22 Oct 2010 15:47:35 +0000 ?p=12447#comment-3136 I couldn’t agree more, Mary.

One very welcome measure under Labour was the introduction of a modern language into primary schools.

At the school where I am governor, this has standardised to French, though I am not clear whether French or Spanish is easier.

I think there is room for a lot more research.

One measure I very much welcome – started under Labour – is the teaching of modern languages in primary schools. The school where I am governor has standardised on French, and I think it is very popular.

I still think a lot of research has to be done.
