Oxford Education Deanery Scholarships available to join this event. Find out more and apply.

Join us for a full-day workshop, on Thursday 10 July, 9am-5:15pm, exploring the evidence around teaching children for whom English is an Additional Language (EAL).

This course is designed for EAL leads, classroom teachers and other educators. It will provide an overview of research evidence on key themes in the field of EAL and will offer practical advice on how to interpret that evidence for policy and practice in mainstream classrooms. The course is led by Oxford’s world-leading educators and researchers, Professor Victoria Murphy, Professor Steve Strand, Dr Hamish Chalmers and Dr Faidra Faitaki. They will bring their considerable experience from working across the field of EAL to help you understand how research informs practice and how you can support and promote inclusive learning environments for all.

Coffee, tea and lunch is included in the ticket price.
