King's recognises that, for some pupils, English is not their first language and so the School ensures that there is specific and specialist provision available to help children increase their level of English language proficiency.
King's employs EAL specialist teachers who not only help to ensure that other teachers are incorporating the needs of EAL children into their lesson planning, but also teach individual and small group lessons. The School makes sure that appropriate dual language resources are provided where necessary.
