Curricular models

The Good Practice Project (GPP) and the Development of Early Language Learning project (DELL), managed by CILT, have conducted action research firmly rooted in current classroom practice. This work to promote and develop ELL has provided detailed information about a number of models of provision, some of which could be replicable elsewhere. There are currently several different approaches to ELL. The principal successful models, identified through CILT’s work with schools are outlined in the document Early Language Learning Curricular Models.

Early Language Learning Curricular Models is available in pdf format. You need Adobe Acrobat reader in order to be able to read the pdf file. If you do not have this reader you can obtain it free of charge from the Adobe Acrobat site.
