Native speakers of English, the language of instruction in 90 per cent of these schools, will be in the minority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe learning needs of second language learners in national education systems differ fundamentally from those of SLs in the international community. This book argues that SLs in international schools are better provided for within models of instruction that do not assimilate to any political system; where motivation can come from areas other than wanting to belong to a specific culture; and where students can develop all their languages equitably.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors trace the theories underpinning second language learning programs in international schools and delve into the complexities of teacher relationships and the influence of curriculum agencies on second language learning. Through case studies and vignettes, they argue for establishing a department of Professional English as a Second Language at the center of the academic life in each school, whose staff will build on the widely acknowledged potential of second language learners and enhance their capabilities in all their languages.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49611399266577,"sku":"GOR013178499","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1858568595.jpg?v=1751092371"},{"product_id":"bilingualism-in-international-schools-book-maurice-carder-9781853599408","title":"Bilingualism in International Schools","description":"This book presents a model for instructing bilingual students in International Schools across the curriculum. In such schools there is now a majority of second language learners, and Carder presents a three-programme model which will provide content-based English-language skills, appropriate staff training, and develop students mother tongues.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49639143473425,"sku":"GOR008015538","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49735493845265,"sku":"NGR9781853599408","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50401673576721,"sku":"CIN1853599409G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52089505841425,"sku":"NLS9781853599408","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1853599409.jpg?v=1751448886"},{"product_id":"bilingualism-in-international-schools-book-maurice-carder-9781853599415","title":"Bilingualism in International Schools","description":"International Schools have developed since their inception from a largely native English-speaking student body to schools such as the author’s, the Vienna International School (VIS), where there are students of 90 nationalities with 65 mother tongues. Maurice Carder proposes a “three-programme model” for addressing the language and curricula needs of these students: a content-based second language programme; a programme of cultural and linguistic training for all staff; and a mother tongue programme for minority students. The model is based on research findings and practice: at the VIS every year approximately 1\/3 of the graduating students gain an IB Diploma (International Baccalaureate) because they are able to take their mother tongue (other than English or German) as Language A1. The book contains insightful chapters not only for school leaders, programme designers and teachers, but also for parents. Inserted boxes of student responses give an authentic voice to the needs of second language learners, and many useful resources and websites are given.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52486326681873,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52486327795985,"sku":"NLS9781853599415","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781853599415.jpg?v=1759859066"},{"product_id":"bilingualism-in-international-schools-book-maurice-carder-9781853599422","title":"Bilingualism in International Schools","description":"International Schools have developed since their inception from a largely native English-speaking student body to schools such as the author’s, the Vienna International School (VIS), where there are students of 90 nationalities with 65 mother tongues.
