English as an Additional Language
At Hawbush, we recognise the importance of children achieving their full potential no matter where their starting point is. We work together to meet the full range of needs of all children and their families, including those who speak English as an Additional Language.
We endeavour to provide exciting opportunities to support these children in and out of the classroom. Provision for our EAL pupils includes:
- Daily, structured lessons
- Cross curricular opportunities
- Talk for writing
- Use of visual aids such as WIDGIT
Celebrating Cultures at Hawbush
Here are a few ways in which we celebrate language and other cultures:
- Child-led assemblies
