English as an Additional Language

Clifford Bridge Academy > Key Information > Inclusion/SEND > English as an Additional Language

At Clifford Bridge we are very proud of the multicultural diversity of our school community. We actively encourage children to learn “home” languages and enjoy the gift of becoming bilingual speakers. With this in mind, we are aware that children who are exposed to multiple languages may find the demands of the English curriculum challenging.
