Vision: A circle where every French/Francophone child, regardless of socio-economic status, has access to a continuous tie with where they stem from. March **2012** **TAR** 2 Our activities are based on the official programmes of the Ministry of National Education for Nursery and primary classes. They aim at the linguistic development of pupils in key areas such as comprehension, oral expression, spelling and written composition. The school emphasizes educational and cultural objectives, taught in a pleasant and playful atmosphere. At "Lumières de London Bridge" our activities consist of supporting our pupils in their learning of the French language while encouraging exchange between the children as well as with the teachers. - Children learn while having fun. We encourage them to take an interest in their culture and learn about the key seasons in France, the famous characters and popular songs that all children normally know in France. - Our teachers are always looking for creativity in their teaching method to keep the children's attention at its best. **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the** -Teachers continuously receive relevant pedagogical training in the year's **public benefit in relation to** program corresponding to the level of the class they teach and according **these objects (include within** to their needs. **this section the statutory declaration that trustees have** -Trustees and all staff members get to do the Safeguarding training to stay **had regard to the guidance** aware of the current laws and regulations around dealing with vulnerable **issued by the Charity** children and/or young adults. **Commission on public benefit)** -Children come to us every Saturday from 10h00 to 13h00 (term-time only).
