Languages provision your whole trust can rely on.
For MAT leads frustrated by inconsistent delivery, under-confident teachers, and no clear picture of what's actually happening across their schools.
Languages is the subject nobody can get a grip on.
It's not for lack of trying. It's because primary languages at MAT scale has a set of structural problems that individual school effort can't solve.
No oversight of what's being taught
You can't walk into any school and know what languages lesson is happening, which topics each year group is covering, or whether progression maps are being followed.
Teachers dreading the lesson
Most primary teachers have zero languages training. They're handed a scheme and told to get on with it. "I don't speak French." "The kids are bored." "I don't know if I'm doing it right."
No data you can stand behind
No shared assessment framework. No moderated work samples. No way to compare School A with School M. When trustees ask for languages outcomes — there's nothing credible to show.

She works directly with curriculum directors, subject leaders and lead practitioners to build provision that doesn't depend on any one person to keep it running.
Find out where your trust actually stands.
Most MAT leads don't have a clear picture of languages quality across their schools — not because they don't care, but because nobody's built a tool that makes it visible.
Until now.

Priority recommendation
Assessment and evidence is your biggest gap. This is what's making languages invisible to your board and vulnerable at Ofsted.
"This is the first languages approach that's worked consistently across our primary schools. The system gives every school what they need without forcing them to be identical — and our coordinators finally feel supported rather than isolated."
