The ESOL programme at Henderson North School is for children who have english as their second language. The programme is run by Mrs Novata and Mrs Watson on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
We work with children in class and withdraw groups. Mrs Watson is in the playground at lunchtime to support our ESOL children. The programme is largely a topic based oral language programme. The topics covered are related to the school wide topic. Each topic is introduced prior to the topic being studied in class. This empowers the children in the topic as they have established an understanding and have a language base to build on.
