As #worldclil draws to a close, one main takeaway for Céline Healy is about making education equitable - ensuring that language is not a barrier to learners in our classrooms.
40% of learners world wide are taught in a language they don't speak or understand fluently (UNESCO 2025) T.J. Ó Ceallaigh addresses how teachers can be supported to face this challenge #WorldCLIL @languages_ie
Fantastic to be co-organising #WorldCLIL with @languages_ie and @CelineHealy on behalf of @QUBelfast. The eager beavers were laying out goody bags for almost 200 delegates last night!

Objective is to raise awareness of the new national portal for languages in the UK, and to explore how we can make it work best for both the #NorthernIreland languages community, and prospective learners of all #languages from primary to #lifelonglearning.
For newly arrived Ukrainian learners in English-medium schools, a great resource from @languages_ie #LanguagesConnect ppli.ie/news/help-welcome-ne…

Education funding crisis is "a catastrophic situation...easily the most punitive budget we've had in education". Impact will be felt from early years to uni, always hitting the poor hardest.

The birthplace of great ideas lies in the 'CON' of conferences. Talking WITH and not AT each other (usually over a caffeinated beverage). Stimulating talks and lengthy breaks for discussion with wonderful colleagues. Adieu #CLIL2023

There have been so many cuts to NI #education services over the past few months it's hard to keep track, but what will it all mean for schools? bbc.in/445sM6N
Language learners are disaffected and drop out post-14. Really? Not all who enjoy languages get to study them; progression is all-or-nothing; policy actors and pupils alike want to do things differently; CLIL offers new opportunities. #tweetyourthesis @qubgradschool
What are the elephants in your (class) room and how do we get them back to the jungle? #CLIL2023
