Hey sorry if I have posted this is the wrong place!

can anyone please tell me in simple words what the EYFS says about EAL/bilingual speaking children

 

I have this quote 'the EYFS supports the idea that strong foundations in a home language support the development of english', and now i can not find where i got it from.

 

Appreciate any help

Hi Judie

You might like to have a look at this document if you haven't seen it already.

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
