Sarum St Paul's CofE (VA) Primary School
EAL (English as an Additional Need)
As a Church of England primary school we adopt the Christian ethos of inclusivity and welcome children from all over the world and from all walks of life. Nearly one third of our pupils are exposed to a language, other than English, at home. There are 20 different languages, other than English, used by members of our school population. We acknowledge the value of children being fluent in more than one language and the additional dimension it brings to children's social and cultural development.
We carefully monitor and track the progress of pupils with EAL to ensure they are not disadvantaged and recognise that a number some of our children require additional support to acquire the same competence in English as in their home language(s). This support is provided in class through carefully differentiated work and, where appropriate, through the additional support and advice from other agencies.
The following resources and links provide additional support for our EAL parents.
