What is it?
This guide is intended to support senior leaders in the welcome, induction and inclusion of newly-arrived pupils learning English as an additional language (EAL) through rigorous selfevaluation and targeted action.
The guide recognises that newly-arrived English as an additional language learners are not a homogeneous group. Some new arrivals, for example, may be new to English; some may have achieved social but not academic fluency and some may be advanced bilingual learners.
In addition, a complex interplay of factors such as language development in English and the first language(s), the pupil’s experience of working in more than one language, their culture, ethnicity, previous educational history and socio-economic status will all form part of their experience.
This guide uses a three wave approach to plan, design and tailor effective and appropriate provision.
