ਪੰਜਾਬੀ

The Panjabi department is an enthusiastic and dynamic team who aim to promote that all language learners develop the skills and confidence to consider themselves as ‘World Citizens’ who belong in a multicultural and mutually respectful world. The Punjabi department has a collaborative and creative approach to teaching and learning, which is embedded within daily practice and future planning. The department endeavours to make learning language fun and meaningful, providing students with many opportunities for both collaboration and independent work in each lesson. There is an emphasis on equipping students with the linguistic skills to unpick and decode unfamiliar language, also ensuring that each topic contains an element of culture.
