Classroom support for EAL learners

EAL learners need a clear focus on both language and curriculum learning in order to make good progress and this is more likely to be in place if they receive support from EAL specialists. The current OfSTED guidance for inspectors states that:

Specialist EAL support should be available for new arrivals from qualified teachers or teaching assistants who have received appropriate training and support. More advanced learners of English should have continuing support in line with their varying needs as they develop competencies over time.

NASSEA associates provide classroom support for EAL learners including:

• Specialist EAL teacher or Bilingual Language Assistant support for International New Arrivals, Early Stage Learners or Advanced Stage Learners of EAL;
• Specialist teacher or assistant support for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller pupils;
• Specialist teacher or assistant support for Asylum Seeker and Refugee pupils.

NASSEA associates work alongside class or subject teachers to provide curriculum access and a focus on language development.
