English as an Additional Language (EAL) pupils make up 1 in 6 of the population in England's schools. Up to 360 different languages are spoken by these pupils. Teachers must ensure that they consider the significant challenges which EAL pupils might face-academically, culturally and emotionally-as they engage in their education and adapt to the strengths and specific needs of these pupils. This text offers tried and tested strategies for gaining an understanding of EAL provision and the development of effective pedagogy for learning and progression. It includes both immediate measures and handy tips as well as longer term strategies to embed into teaching. Designed to be read over a week, the book is divided into seven chapters, each detailing clear strategies, examining the strategy in action, and summarising the relevant underpinning theory.
