The course aims to ensure that all students:
• gain competence in English across the four skills: reading, writing, speaking, listening;
• have a course of study that best suits their needs;

COURSE CONTENT:
Over four lessons per week students will work on strengthening reading, writing, speaking and listening. Studied texts may be linked to mainstream core subjects such as English or Social Studies. Students are mainstreamed in content classes and other options as appropriate. Information Technology will be used to enable students to work independently at times.
