How can my child keep up in English if another language is spoken at home?

The dominant language in the community is English, and students have ample opportunities outside school to develop listening, reading and viewing (receptive skills) in English. Similarly, the common language amongst students who have different Languages A is English.

Entry to the Junior School requires basic conversational levels in both the student's Languages A, including English, and activities in Junior School classes, including English, give a greater emphasis to developing speaking, writing and presenting (productive) skills, while students’ normal daily social interactions during the Extra-Curricular programme and outside school will also provide opportunities to speak.
