Summary

This event will be an excellent opportunity to understand the pedagogy for CLIL, how it can raise achievement and also how best to address the leadership and management issues surrounding its introduction.  It will also be a very practical, hands-on event where participants will be able to observe CLIL in action in a variety of subject areas, as well as having opportunities to speak to staff and students currently experiencing CLIL.   There will also be a workshop on how to produce a unit of work for CLIL and how best to access resources.  The fee of £50.00 covers the cost of TWO DELEGATES PER SCHOOL (one to be a non-linguist and/or member of SLT).

All sessions will also be supported by staff from the Tile Hill Wood School & Language College in Coventry.
