EAL Pupils: Supporting the Language Needs of New Arrivals and Children from Conflict Areas | Secondary

This webinar will provide headteachers, governors, senior leaders, teaching and support staff with advice and practical guidance on making provision for new pupils with English as an Additional Language (EAL) to help them adapt and thrive.

Effective support for new pupils with EAL, particularly those who have recently arrived from abroad as a result of world events, may involve overcoming both language and cultural barriers, and supporting children’s emotional and mental health needs, as highlighted in newly published DfE guidance.

In this webinar, Wendy Adeniji, experienced school principal, MFL teacher, inspector, trainer and author of international renown, will explore strategies which schools can use to support the language needs of new pupils with EAL and ease their integration into school life.
