  • Explore the importance of maintaining the child’s first language
  • Share ideas and resources to help children learning EAL to develop spoken English
    and access the EYFS curriculum
1: The child in the context of their family and culture
2: Maintaining the child’s first language and learning EAL
3: Observation / assessment / next steps
4: Reflection: what next?
