About this course

German (year 9 only)

Our course

The English national curriculum for modern foreign languages is based on the fundamental belief that children should be able to communicate for a real purpose in the chosen foreign language. Our curriculum model and teaching methods incorporate a range of approaches used throughout the courses of study to achieve this.

Learning a foreign language is a wonderful way to encounter and understand other cultures. Our MFL courses are structured to support and enable pupils to express their ideas and thoughts in another language and to understand and respond to its speakers, both in speech and in writing. We provide opportunities for students to communicate for practical purposes, learn new ways of thinking and read great literature in the original language.

  • Practical skills in the target language
  • A stimulating and enjoyable language experience
  • Attainable targets for pupils of all levels of ability
  • A range of learning styles for collaborative group work and individual work
  • An understanding and appreciation of foreign cultures
  • Skills and positive attitudes towards the further study of languages
  • Our KS3 courses provide the foundation for learning further languages.

This course helps students to: –

  • Understand and respond to spoken and written language from a variety of authentic sources
  • Speak with growing confidence and find ways of communicating through discussion and asking questions
  • Write at varying length, for different purposes and audiences, using the variety of grammatical structures
  • Discover and develop an appreciation of a range of writing in the language studied

Student progress is measured by both formative and summative assessments. Formative assessments take place regularly and in a variety of formats ranging from group discussions, speaking, writing, quizzes, and presentations. Students complete one summative assessment each half-term in which they are required to demonstrate their skills across at least two of the four key skills; listening, speaking, reading and writing.

King’s InterHigh is open for enrolment all year round. We kickstart each student’s online learning experience with a welcoming induction process to make the transition smooth.

VAT charges explained

The UK Government has implemented a policy to charge VAT on independent schools taking effect from the 1st of January 2025. This VAT charge is payable by families who are based in, or access, King’s InterHigh from the UK. This change does not impact families who are based outside the UK and access King’s InterHigh from another country.

We understand the significant financial commitment you make in choosing our online school as well as how important it is to be able to financially plan. After careful review of the details of the legislation, we will support parents by absorbing costs ourselves, so that a slower phasing in of this unwelcome change reduces its financial impact on families.

For the upcoming 2024-2025 academic year (starting September 2024), Inspired Education Group will absorb much of the 20% VAT charge. For the Spring and Summer terms when the 20% VAT will now apply, we will only pass on 8.5% to families, taking up the difference ourselves.

To further support families with the financial implications of this change in government policy, for the 2025-2026 academic year (starting in September 2025) there will be no inflationary tuition fee increases, and that Inspired Education Group will continue to absorb costs to limit the increase to 8.5% for that academic year. Overall, this will mean we have phased in 17% of the 20% VAT cost over two years to avoid sudden increases for families and have not increased tuition fees.

King’s InterHigh is committed to offering competitive fees and accessible, high-quality independent education, along with the unique benefits of online learning. We are pleased that through careful cost control and the benefits of being part of Inspired, the leading global group of premium schools, we can significantly reduce the financial effect on families due to this change in UK VAT policy.

Technology integration fee

At Inspired, we are committed to investing in cutting-edge technology to enhance student learning and development, ensuring they are well-prepared for the future. This fee will contribute to the development of our Inspired AI tools and our investment in best-in-class learning technology.
