COBIS Conference for Marketing, Development and Admissions Staff

COBIS 40th Annual Conference

Understanding the academic potential 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.  Our Head of School Partnerships, Dr Helen Wood will be in Brussels to discuss equitable approaches to admissions assessment of multilingual learners.
