Changing lives and overcoming exclusion through language education

The Foundation influences policy and practice across the UK by generating and disseminating research; through the robust assessment of projects to identify which techniques have the most impact in supporting learners with EAL; by contributing to the development of public policy; through keynote speaking at national conferences; and through the publication of articles and news stories.  As a result of this, and the programmatic activity, over 3,000 teachers who work with learners who use EAL have been trained and all schools in England have received best practice articles, and over 8,000 individuals involved in the criminal justice system have been reached.
