On Thursday 26th February the North West Consortium Project held a Community Languages Teachers’ Symposium. Sixteen people attended the symposium – including teachers from mainstream and supplementary schools, Language Tutors and Teacher Trainers and a representative from Manchester City Council. After an update on the work the North West Consortium team has been doing, there were discussions about matters affecting the teaching and learning of community languages. The attendees looked at ways to improve the links between mainstream and supplementary schools and ideas were generated for how the North West Consortium can continue to support community languages in both these sectors.
