![COBIS Webinar: Understanding academic progress and attainment in multilingual learners](/wp-content/themes/password-elt-theme/images/image_placeholderb.png)
Understanding the academic progress and attainment of a multilingual learner population in the international school setting is extremely complex, since many of the tools available have not been developed and validated using comparable populations. At the same time, academic English language proficiency is key to attainment and progress in these learners, but is often not assessed at all. Led by our Head of School Partnerships, Dr Helen Wood, this webinar takes a practical approach to how monitoring progress and outcomes in multilingual learners might be more reliably achieved.
