Graphic organisers are useful for learners at a range of different levels of English language proficiency.

EALServiceDandG — 2023-06-26 11:56:53 UTC

For learners who are New to English, graphic organisers can help them to understand the context of the lesson and thereby build on their prior knowledge of the topic.
For EAL learners who are at the Competent or Fluent stages they can help them to clarify or organise their thoughts on a topic before concentrating on the academic language they will need to speak or write about it.

Increasing vocabulary is one of the key building blocks in learning a new language.

EALServiceDandG — 2023-06-26 12:17:22 UTC

EAL learners of all ages and at all stages of English language proficiency need additional support to increase their vocabulary and to learn the meanings of words and phrases in different curriculum contexts.

Scaffolding - providing temporary support for an inexperienced learner in order to help them to complete a task or acquire a skill, and then gradually withdrawing that support.

EALServiceDandG — 2023-06-26 12:26:54 UTC

This idea is integral to the learning of a language, as learners who are the New to English, Early Acquisition and Developing Competence stages of English language proficiency will need more scaffolding in terms of support for their language development.

The EAL Service employs both Teachers and Learning Assistants to provide additional support for pupils as well as EAL guidance to school staff and SQA ESOL course input.

With a growing number of EAL pupils attending our primary school, we decided to invite Rachael to come and give us some training on EAL. The training was informative and full of excellent resources and advice to help support interaction and communication with parents and pupils. Rachael gave an engaging and inspiring presentation which encouraged us all to think about our practice and how it could be easily adapted to be more inclusive of EAL learners. Thank you Rachael!

The session flew in with many helpful examples of resources to use and ways to make my life and that of my pupils much easier. Rachael emailed me the presentation next day, so that during the CPD I could concentrate on what we were talking about and not needing to take notes of internet sites or use my camera to capture images of resources. Having Rachael in school meant I could ask questions and get immediate clarification when I needed it.
I have been so impressed with the whole thing. Speed of response to request for help, in person training and after session support. There are so many resources that Rachael made me aware of that help with translation. Great CPD , I would definitely recommend it.

This was a useful presentation, both in terms of theory and in terms of practical advice. I have already considered it in relation to some of our new Ukrainian students regarding their language acquisition and the most effective way in which they can access the curriculum. The presentation was well delivered, honest and the presenter was clearly aware of the issues being faced in school.

It was reassuring to see and hear that a lot of what we are doing in primary schools is meeting the needs of our children and young people. I was able to ask questions and have them answered reassuringly and it was great to get a look at what resources are out there to support me as an ASLT and for the children that they can use and understand clearly. My session gave me something to think about moving forward.

I thought it was excellent. Rachael's enthusiasm, thorough knowledge, experience and clarity shone threw. It was an excellent well paced presentation with just enough background and loads of ideas and resource links for staff. Rachael also clearly advised of the referral procedure and certainly put me at ease with regard to the, 'What if a child with no English arrives tomorrow?'. She also managed to link in the UNCRC quite nicely ,which was perfect - so many articles are covered within EAL provision and support.

I would thoroughly recommend this training to other schools or to include in part of an Authority Learning Festival. It supports strategies for ASFL, the use of digital tools for ASFL, approaches for learning and teaching around EAL and most importantly, Equity for all!

Rachael came and delivered a session in Dumfries Academy and everyone who attended felt it was incredibly valuable. Rachael gave an idea of the growing number of EAL pupils in the region and shared strategies to remove barriers from their learning and allow them to access the lesson. While providing pupils with English as an additional language access to the curriculum is a substantial challenge, we felt that the strategies explained to us by Rachael would really benefit these pupils without adding too much of a time or workload burden on us as teachers. Rachael took questions at the end which allowed us to ask about specific pupils. Thanks again Rachael!

Although the presentation was clearly structured, Rachael also ensured there was plenty of time for professional dialogue which enabled everyone present to share their own ideas for supporting EAL learners.

The session was the most impactful and relevant professional learning I have undertaken this year and the ideas I gained will have an impact on not only my EAL student, but all of my learners who find literacy challenging.

Newington Primary School

EALServiceDandG — 2024-05-14 07:31:21 UTC

Staff at Newington really enjoyed the EAL training delivered by Rachael Smith. It was very informative and made us all think about ways to be more inclusive within the school and classroom for our learners and parents/carers.

We have had a number of families with EAL over the years and it was interesting to hear about ways to support children when they arrive without any English and not feel guilty about them being in the classroom environment not fully understanding or engaged at the beginning since research has proven that this is the best way to learn.

I really liked the books that were shown to us that showed English and their own native language and it was refreshing to hear that we should encourage them to continue to write and speak in their native language and encourage their families to do so too.

The question and answer session at the end allowed staff to ask specific questions relating to their learners and this too, was very interesting.

The training was very beneficial.

It was great to be able to see how things can be adapted and simple strategies put in place to support EAL pupils. It was also very interesting to be made aware of the importance of assessing the pupils in their own home language.

It was very valuable and helpful to all staff who attended and we really appreciate all the help and support that we have received so far.

The training was offered so quickly which has allowed staff to look at the different resources that are available and where they can be located.

It was also very reassuring to hear that some of the strategies that we have already put in place are strategies that would be recommended.

Rachael brought her own experience to the training which was very valuable. Thank you for making this available and it should be highlighted as a must have training for all nurseries. Thank you :-)

Writing an Individual Education Plan (IEP)

EALServiceDandG — 2025-10-01 09:38:00 UTC

EAL pupils do not as a rule need an IEP (i.e. they do not need 'substantial adaptation to the curriculum', they just need help to access that curriculum).

If they have an additional ASN, and IEP may be considered.

I really enjoyed the EAL training session.

It was a good use of CPD time and provided practical strategies that can be implemented in class fairly easily.

It was great to talk about the various IT tools that can be used but also to see a wee demonstration of each as we often hear about these tools but no one ever shows us how to access them and how to work them properly in order to benefit our learners e.g. Immersive Reader etc.

I'd recommend the training to other departments for sure.

Staff who attended left feeling far better equipped to support EAL pupils in their classes. Always great when a CPD suggests strategies which are both easy to access and implement in the classroom. This will no doubt lead to better outcomes for EAL pupils we are currently supporting. A big thank you again for delivering.
