@jvcdelaney Hi Jennifer, you might find something in the ETBI digital library https://t.co/eci2O43o7x, if not, you could also try linking in with your ETBs ESOL practitioners, they may have some insights that might steer you in the right direction.

[Robert Mc @RobMcCulloch76]

Brilliant to see these resources launched. A real milestone in the provision of language supports across the FET sector, helping to ensure good practices in assessment are consistently used throughout the learners journey.

[SOLAS @SOLASFET]

Back to Balrath Wood today for some outdoor escapades!

[Robert Mc @RobMcCulloch76]

@CiaraNiFhloinn I practically had to prize our cat off the ceiling in the aftermath of Callum McGregor's goal against Croatia. 😁 Both great games yesterday, top entertainment all round 👍

[Robert Mc @RobMcCulloch76]

@CiaraNiFhloinn And an even more Scotland thing to do would be to beat England only to then lose to Croatia in the last game and go out anyway. 😁

[Robert Mc @RobMcCulloch76]

OK. Just have to beat England then. 😬

[Robert Mc @RobMcCulloch76]

@Shovelcr @CiaraNiFhloinn Eight percent of the time, we beat England every time!

UDL is about building more flexibility, accessibility, learner voice and choice into the design of FET programmes to reduce barriers to learning. #UDLforFET @aheadireland @ETBIreland @RehabGroup @DeptofFHed @SimonHarrisTD
