Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms M. Dalley.

This course is for students from non-English speaking backgrounds. It offers help with English language skills. In this programme, the mainstream English curriculum processes – exploring language, thinking critically and processing information – are integrated into learning in the English curriculum strands – Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening, Viewing and Presenting. 

Students will learn in small groups, in pairs and on an individual basis. Classroom activities will foster co­operation with others and encourage students to use English well in all subject areas and include Reading, Writing, Speaking, Viewing and Presenting.

This subject will help students from non-English speaking backgrounds to take part in all aspects of life at a New Zealand secondary school and in the wider community. Students who continue to study ESOL at senior levels will be able to gain NCEA credits leading to University Entrance.
