Survey: Your EAL practice and needs

The purpose of this anonymous survey is to collect information about practitioners’ experiences supporting learners using EAL in their classrooms: how learners are supported, how successful these methods are and what resources are required in the future to help in this process.

If you are familiar with our free EAL resources, consider completing our other short survey instead, called Evaluating The Bell Foundation’s EAL resources, which asks about your experiences working with our resources and how useful they have been for both your learners using EAL and yourself as a teacher.

We can enter you into a £20 book token prize draw as thanks for your taking the time to complete this questionnaire. If you would like to be entered into the draw, please leave your contact detail on the last page of the survey.
