LEAH case study in English Language (ESOL) for Resettlement guidance

We’re delighted to be showcased in the recent English Language (ESOL) for Resettlement guidance published by the Greater London Authority. The guidance aims to

• Raise awareness of UK Resettlement Schemes and programmes with an ESOL element, and related requirements

• Improve access to ESOL for resettled families through increasing understanding of mainstream ESOL funding and eligibility

• Improve the availability of suitable ESOL for resettled communities, by improving awareness and take-up of the additional ESOL and ESOL childcare funding made available via Resettlement and Community Sponsorship Schemes

• Encourage partnership working between Refugee Resettlement Coordinators, Community Sponsorship Groups, formal and informal ESOL providers and civil society organisations, to improve the experience of resettled communities and their progression in and from ESOL and

• Share good practice and resources captured to date via the review of earlier resettlement schemes.
