I am in my PGCE placement at a really lovely inner London junior school. We have a lot of EAL children in our class, but one is concerning me. I can't go into a lot of detail about his background but I am in Y2. How much time would an EAL child with very little English in your class spend being supported to learn English? The child in question has a very low ability in writing, but is OK at maths. I just don't know if he will catch up as he goes through the school, or if he needs more help than he's getting. No criticism of my school implied, because they are really lovely, I'm just curious!
