- Question
-
Her Majesty's Government what is their target for the number of school pupils who will (1) study, and (2) achieve, the English Baccalaureate by 2022; what estimate they have made of the number of modern foreign language (MFL) teachers required to meet those targets; and what assessment they have made of the impact on the achievability of those targets of any current or future shortage in MFL teacher numbers
- Answer
-
The Government believes that the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) provides the right educational foundation for the majority of pupils. We want to see a significant increase in the proportion of pupils in mainstream secondary schools entering the EBacc combination of subjects at GCSE.
We will publish further detail about the EBacc policy in due course.
