Developing literacy for a multilingual world
Welcome to The EAL Academy - school improvement specialists and leaders in the fields of literacy, ethnic minority achievement, and English as an additional language
Who are we?
We are a team of consultants, trainers and serving teachers with a breadth of experience gained both in the UK and internationally in the fields of literacy, ethnic minority achievement, and English as an additional language.
What do we do?
We work with teachers, schools, academy trusts and local authorities to help pupils and students achieve and enable schools to flourish.
How we work
Our training, consultancy and resources are constantly reshaped to meet the particular needs of a school, group of schools or local authority. We fit the delivery method to the institution: our courses can be run as twilights, in whole day sessions, at weekends or in any combination of the three. All include an online element to encourage further reading and the sharing of resources and experiences outside the taught sessions.
Our interaction with clients is consistently prompt, thorough and reliable, and our training is always interactive. We practice what we preach!
