Meeting the needs of all of your EAL Learners
Course code:
EAL011
The proportion of pupils in UK schools who use English as an Additional Language has doubled in a decade. Many schools affected have had to find out how to best meet the needs of these students. It is essential that schools offer a coherent approach to EAL provision by meeting the needs of both New Arrivals and More Advanced EAL Learners. This course aims to give EAL Coordinators - or those with line management responsibility for EAL - guidance and practical strategies on how best to manage Whole School EAL Provision. Ultimately the school works best when parents, pupils, governors and staff work in harmony towards common goals; this course will help you achieve that.
This course will help you to understand:
- Relevant DfE documentation
- The Admissions Process
- The Induction Process
- Use of data
- The use of TAs
