Abstract

In the following opinion article, Claire Gorrara and Lucy Jenkins explore how the Curriculum for Wales represents a radical shift in language education, embedding International Languages into the core of a learner-centred system. Arguing for early exposure, creative pedagogy, and cross-linguistic collaboration, they call for a multilingual mindset and sustained policy commitment to ensure languages thrive in Wales.
