English as an Additional Language (EAL)
Information and support for schools.
Leaners with English as an additional language (EAL) will have differing educational experiences and may be:
- newly arrived in the country
- refugees, asylum seekers or economic migrants
- from established ethnic communities born in the UK
The EAL Service can provide advice, support and resources to enhance the capacity of schools and settings to meet the needs of this vulnerable group.
With our support you can develop your inclusive practice in order to welcome and celebrate the cultural diversity of your school community and ensure that your EAL learners access an appropriate curriculum and make progress in an inclusive environment.
For further information or support, please contact the EAL service: eal@worcestershire.gov.uk.
