English as Additional Language
English as Additional Language
At Whitnash we welcome the cultural, linguistic and educational experiences pupils with English as an additional language (EAL) contribute to the school. We ensure strategies are in place to support pupils with EAL which enable them to become confident, and acquire the language skills needed to reach their full academic potential.

At Whitnash we provide a welcoming atmosphere for newly arrived pupils with EAL, gathering accurate information regarding pupil’s backgrounds, cultures and abilities as well as assessing the skills and needs of each pupil. We aim to equip teachers and support staff with the necessary skills, resources and knowledge to support pupils with EAL and use all available resources to raise attainment. At Whitnash all staff also strive to maximise opportunities to model the fluent use of English.
