It has been adapted from Language for Results, which is a core part of The Bell Foundation’s evidence-informed and highly regarded EAL Programme for UK schools. What is Language for Results? A long-term programme which seeks to improve the attainment of children who speak English as an Additional Language. This is achieved through developing the knowledge and expertise of school staff, as well as by supporting schools to make their procedures even more effective both for EAL learners and their parents. EAL Assessment Framework The cornerstone of the programme is the EAL Assessment Framework for Schools, which was developed together with academics from King’s College London and the University of Cambridge. The Framework provides schools with an evidence-informed tool allowing them to accurately assess the proficiency in English of learners using EAL. The Framework was originally developed for UK schools and won the prestigious British Council’s ELTons Award for Local Innovation. New materials are currently being developed in order to show how the Framework can best be employed in an international context. Find out more about the EAL Assessment Framework.
