EAL children Assessment and Recording document

Children’s mobility is a common experience for most schools but some experience significant numbers of pupils moving in and out of the school, which means that this phenomenon becomes a significant challenge for the school and both the mobile and stable communities of pupils.
Managing high levels of pupil mobility well is essential to ensure the school provides the best education for all of its pupils. New arrivals need to receive a good welcome, integrate quickly and begin to achieve, whilst those leaving will need support and help to ensure their exit is smooth and that they are well prepared for their next school.

To meet the needs of EAL children’s educational and moral needs, a formative assessment tool is necessary. This will enable the school to track the language attainment of the pupils as they progress towards independent learning.
