Advert

Teacher Additional Support for Learning (7/) (EAL) (0.8FTE)

Based in Dumfries and Upper Nithsdale

Unpromoted Teacher Scale £38, - £48,

You will be required to work 28 hours per week.

Dumfries & Galloway is home to several children and young people, for whom English is not the first or home language. They come from variety of backgrounds and are at different stages of language development, both in their first language and English. We describe these pupils as using English as an additional language, recognising that they are bi-lingual, possibly experiencing different cultures at home and at school.

Pupils are at all levels of proficiency, from children starting nursery and new arrivals in the early stages of English, to pupils in S5/6 planning to go to university. Each child is an individual and while some experience little difficulty, others risk being disadvantaged, if the language of the school is allowed to become a barrier to learning.

Aims of this service:

To support the learning and teaching of pupils with a first language other than English, in the Authority’s schools, so that they reach their full potential To improve access, ensure inclusion and raise achievement across the mainstream curriculum To aid the process of assessment To work in partnership with the EAL learner’s own school and teachers To boost the self-esteem of pupils for whom English is an additional language To promote equality of opportunity
