If you have EAL new arrivals in your school with limited English, you need a scheme of work in English that supports learners with language learning alongside the curriculum content you are delivering. This is to ensure young learners are understanding the basics of language needed for success.

Learning can be split into two parts:

  1. Survival language (otherwise known as BICS (Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills)
  2. The language needed for success in academic studies. This is known as CALP (Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency). 

The downloadable scheme of work for providing learners with the survival language they need for later success with academic language. They are split into sessions. Often, it takes a huge amount of time to prepare resources to support learners with the survival language alongside the academic language they need to access the demands of the curriculum.
