Language is essential for communication and learning. Understanding the full language repertoire of the students will give education staff valuable insights as to how students utilize language in different contexts. 

This worksheet will enable education staff to: 

  • Validate the student's ability to communicate in another language
  • Build self- worth and contribute feelings of a positive identity
  • Have deeper conversations about the functions different languages play in the lives of children and young people and their caregivers
  • Encourage the development and continuation of mother tongue conversations at home
  • Share information about taking GCSE’s in their native language
