Support for French K–10 Syllabus (2018)

The French K–10 Syllabus (2018) was developed using the Languages K–10 Framework. As all K-10 language syllabuses (2017 and later) are underpinned by this framework, teachers should view resources across all languages to access a broader range of sample scope and sequences, unit starters and assessment tasks.

For advice on how to develop your own programming documents, visit Planning, programming and assessing languages 7 to 10.
