westie Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi, There is another reference, I know this because it was used specifically in an oftsed report for a group I was supporting. Havent got EYFS in front of me right now, but will check later. Its to do with practitioners celebrating childs home language within the setting. As others have dsaid though 'Supporting Children learning English as an Additional Language' is a great document Jo www.inclusion-inc.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
