✨Thrilled and honoured that BERA have recognised DELTEA's contribution to primary languages education research! Here's to the project team including the inspirational teachers we've worked with! 👏bera.ac.uk/news/bera-anno… @SuzanneJaneGrah @lisibo @APPGML @network_primary

👉digital tools are used to facilitate quality learning resources and assessment. @SuzanneJaneGrah

What does the latest evidence say about maximising progression in primary languages? Learning is optimised when: 👉1hr per week of language learning is offered throughout the school year.

digital tools can offer accessible ITE and CPD which are essential factors in capacity-building for primary languages. @SuzanneJaneGrah @ALL4language @APPGML @network_primary

👉 scaffolded approaches (reflection, collaboration, contextualisation, experimentation, reflection) support teachers to implement evidence-based practice. 👉 collaborative CPD supports teachers' sense of being valued, their professional learning and validated their expertise.

It's official! 😉 Values and being valued are central to teaching and learning. Our research shows: 👉 confident teachers are crucial for optimising languages education outcomes. 👉teacher competence is significantly improved by research-informed, online CPD.
