Current courses

Introduction to EAL Assessment  

This course provides an introduction to the design, structure and purposes behind The Bell Foundation’s EAL Assessment Framework and provides numerous opportunities for practitioners to practise using it with the aid of samples of speaking and writing. With the help of this course, you will be able to assess your EAL learners’ English language skills with confidence, monitor their progress and set relevant targets. 

Integrating EAL and SEND Provision in Schools  

This course aims to support senior leaders, EAL Co-ordinators/Leads and SENDCos in primary and secondary schools, to identify accurately and quickly, multilingual learners who use EAL, who may have a special educational need or disability, and to strengthen their provision for those learners. 

How are these courses distinct from other training by The Bell Foundation? 

  1. They are completely free, entirely online and available 24/7. 
  2. There are no fixed enrolment dates or maximum number of attendees. 
  3. You can learn at your own pace: all participants have 2 years in which to complete the courses. 
  4. There are no tutors on the courses; instead, there are numerous feedback and commentary videos provided. 
  5. You can re-take the activities in the course as many times you’d like. 

How can you access these courses? 

The courses are available via The Bell Foundation’s Moodle platform.
