Below are general principles, strategies and guidelines for activities for parents, carers and teachers of bilingual and multilingual pupils. We suggest a good place to start is with the first document listed: A guide - pupils new to learning English. Documents created before September 2011 will refer to EMAS or ACTES. Services have been reorganised and addresses will have changed. Contact your local authority for details of their support services.
