@fatfei_ @NiallHarbison I can see it and i am in the UK

[Fei 🙏 🇭🇰 🇮🇱 🇬🇧 @fatfei_]

@NiallHarbison This is flipping ridiculous, I can't view this in the UK because of the online safety act and adult content. The British government is beyond ridiculous!

Such a worthwhile process to go through to gain @HampshireEMTAS #EAL excellence award. Well worth any school doing to evaluate their EAL practice and ultimately support learners who use #EAL

'A heart full of love' mmm. As a 'Dr' i guess accuracy in detail would be important. Not 'illegal' but arriving 'irregularly'. Actually totally legal under international law.

@DMinghella “The brown man on a boat” as you have deliberately chosen to describe him, “is not the enemy”. You don’t know that, he has arrived illegally without documentation. This is exactly why the U.K. needs to secure its borders and not listen to people who speak as you do.

@jasonelt @hwc001 Excellent article

@hwc001 Translanguaging isn't a pedagogy, but it may be a 'thing'

[Chris Pim @chrisp09]

@hwc001 Well I don't have access to it and wouldn't pay the obscene fee to view it...but you did say in your post...'“The concept [of translanguaging] and the pedagogical applications fall apart'...

Most would not have access to the article and might be confused by your post.

[Chris Pim @chrisp09]

Umm...be interested to read the source...but imo informed by 25 years experience in the field of 'EAL'...there are measurable benefits in 'tranlanguaging' pedagogy. Just because we have a dearth of extensive, longitudinal studies does not negate the pedagogical value...

Love this scheme! Works very well in our school. Young Interpreters and EAL pupils really benefit from being a part of it. 👍 #EAL #YoungInterpreters

87. @HampshireEMTAS have updated their position statement on the withdrawal provision of #EAL students. Their website includes other extremely useful information and resources.

Delighted to see @MrsBarclaySPS launch the “Young Interpreters Scheme” at Stenhouse today. We look forward to making a positive impact on children who are new to our school #eal #younginterpreters #teamstenhouse

[Jonathan Bifield EAL @BifieldJonathan]

Really enjoyed it 😊

[Dr Penny Rabiger (She/Her) @Penny_Ten]

Prevent training updated in September is mad.

For example it mentions
"Extreme RW ideologies" and yet
"Left wing ideologies"

Anti-fascism, socialism and ‘single-issue’ items (such as climate change and anti-racism) are all under scrutiny as extremist
Thanks @_Wrevolution_

[LorneStreetEAL @LorneStreetEAL]

@YIscheme @maindeeprimary Congratulations to everyone. After our October break in Scotland, pupils @lornestreetPS will begin their exciting journey to become Young Interpreters. Many thanks to @YIscheme . We will be in contact soon to seek guidance, advice and support.

[Maindee Primary @maindeeprimary]

Young Interpreters and Peace Pals would like to share their messages of Peace on International Peace Day. What does peace mean to you?

[Mubina Husain @supernova2gold]

⭐️ This is so useful for anyone teaching new arrivals to KS4 who are EAL. Thank you @HampshireEMTAS
