Many pupils in England choose to study French, due to the proximity of France. It is so easy to hop on a ferry and be enjoying a croissant and a cafe creme in France in under two hours. More than 220 million people speak French on the five continents. The OIF, an international organisation of French-speaking countries, comprises 77 member States and governments. French is the second most widely learned foreign language after English, and the sixth most widely spoken language in the world.
