Our Mission
MFL Mentoring’s mission is to increase the number of learners studying a GCSE in International Languages in Wales.
We are a key delivery partner for Welsh Government’s Global Futures strategy. The strategy is centred on developing a multilingual curriculum for a bilingual Wales. Since 2015, MFL Mentoring has been pro-actively increasing aspiration for and improving attitudes towards international languages. MFL Mentoring is committed to a multilingual future for Wales.
I am delighted to see the impact this mentoring programme has had on the engagement of learners. Wales is an outward looking nation and international languages can help raise aspirations and widen the horizons of all our leaners. There are many challenges facing international languages across the UK, but it is encouraging to see the difference the programme is making in Wales as well as strengthening the link with our schools and universities.
