Our ESOL^definition Curriculum Pilot has now begun! We have had a good response and many eachers from ESOL and beyond have shown a keen interest in getting involved with the pilot.  Tuesday 7^th January was our first teacher briefing.  Some staff expressed the needs to get support and training with embedding LGBT within their lessons and Morley college will be delivering a tailor made session on Tuesday 14^th January.

The Pilot has attracted staff from ESOL,  English (Literacy and GSCE), Embedded vocational ( English and childcare) and Access, which is a great response. The team has done a some research on what is currently available (see below).
