Naturally, it is advantageous for foreign children living in Prague to develop an understanding of the Czech language during their stay at Park Lane.
Our Czech as additional language (CAL) programme enables our international pupils to learn and develop their knowledge of Czech. CAL classes are scheduled five times a week in Secondary (Y7 - Y9).
The CAL curriculum is very diverse. Our students focus on developing the four essential skills of language learning - listening, speaking, reading and writing but they also get enough space to use the language in a practical way. You can find our teaching plans below and see what are your children learning.
We follow Common European Framework of Reference for Languages in our CAL classes and our students can take Czech Language Exams for Young Learners which are internationally recognised. Our Y7 students can take the A1 exam and our Y9 students can take the A2 exam.
