Mandarin for Schools
MFL & PPA Cover
Little Mandarin Classes works closely with Primary Schools fulfilling their Modern Foreign Language, PPA Cover and Clubs. We work in line with the National Curriculum ensuring Children meet the milestones and learn Mandarin Chinese through an interactive and creative learning method. We believe strongly in making classes fun therefore we developed a strong curriculum using Story-telling, Role-play and British Sign Language.

Learning Progression for KS2
The year 3 class really enjoy their Mandarin class every Monday. The level of teaching is fantastic, as the children feed off their teachers enthusiasm, using repetition and music as a learning aid. The class was able to communicate very quickly and respond to questions with ease. I was initially surprised with how quickly they learnt Mandarin and how much they were able to retain. I am glad our School has chosen Little Mandarin Classes to teach our children and would recommend them to any other children’s organisation.
Colvestone Primary School
The classes are great, very interactive and well resourced. They are also pitched well for the age range with lots of singing and movement. The children are learning a lot and loving it.
