Why workbooks matter
Real learning. On the page.
📈

Show progress clearly

Open any workbook and see a full year of language learning — lesson by lesson, in a child's own handwriting. That's the kind of evidence Ofsted actually wants to see.

✍️

Structured writing time

Reading, writing and drawing tasks that consolidate exactly what's been taught — off screens and with purpose. Every activity is built around the lesson they've just had.

📦

Minimal classroom hassle

No printing, no cutting, no laminating. Books arrive ready to use, organised by year group and unit. Less prep for teachers, more time for actual teaching.

💷

Cheaper than photocopying

At £3.50 for 56 pages, that's about 6p a page — less than it costs to print the same pages in colour, with no copying time. Work out your saving →

🏆

Neat, tidy, tangible

Something pupils take pride in. A finished workbook feels like an achievement — and it looks like one too. Parents notice. Headteachers notice. Ofsted notice.

📚

One book per year, per pupil

Each pupil gets their own workbook for that year. At the end of the year it goes home — a tangible record of what they've learned, something they genuinely keep.

Evidence you can
open in seconds.

When an Ofsted inspector asks to see evidence of MFL progression, you hand them a workbook. Every unit has an assessment page. Every lesson is documented. The journey is visible from page one.

Birchwood Primary School received an Outstanding grade in their MFL deep dive — and their workbooks were a central part of the evidence they presented.

"The workbooks were the thing that made the inspector's eyes light up. You could see six years of learning in one conversation."
Questions
Good to know.
When can I pre-order?

Pre-orders for next academic year open in January at £3.50 per pupil. Outside the pre-order window, workbooks are available from stock at £5 per pupil while stock lasts.

Do I need one per pupil?

Yes. Each pupil has their own book for the year, so their work stays in one place and goes home with them at the end of the year.

Who can buy them?

Workbooks are exclusive to Primary Languages Network members, on any plan. Each book follows the scheme of work for that year group.

Can I see one first?

Of course. Order a sample and see the quality for yourself.
