Contacts, Events and Websites> Government Websites
The useful website links have been organised into three sections.
The Government Websites section includes DCSF, QCA and National
Curriculum links. These are mostly guidance and information rather than
activities.
LA websites have advice, guidance and links to useful websites that
have activities.
The Other Websites section includes national organisations’ and
individuals’ websites with useful activities.
If you are new to working with pupils who are learning English as an
additional language (EAL) and are looking for activities you can use
with pupils you may find the Other Websites section the best place to
start. It has some simple straightforward activities for working with
EAL pupils including those who are new to learning EAL (recent arrivals
to the UK who do not speak English).
If you are new to working with EAL pupils and would like some advice and
guidance you will find useful links in all three sections.
