Summary
"Meanings that matter...." - The Dearing Review
What do pupils really think of language lessons? Do they find it challenging, motivating, stimulating?
This session looks at how Tile Hill Wood School & Language College has introduced an entitlement to CLIL (Content & Language Integrated Learning) in Year 7. It will give practical examples and advice on teaching a subject through the medium of a foreign language and how a cross curricular approach has increased both motivation and attainment in both subjects. The session will aim to provide you with ideas and examples that you can adapt in your school.
Programme
The session takes place from 14-16. Coffee & tea includedTrainer
