EAL/D
EAL/D students' first language is a language or dialect other than English and who require additional support to assist them to develop proficiency in English. EAL/D students come from diverse multilingual backgrounds and may include:
- overseas- or Australian-born students whose first language is a language other than English
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students whose first language is an Indigenous language, including traditional languages, creoles and related varieties, or Aboriginal English.
At Metella Road Public School we provide EAL/D students with one on one or small group instruction to assist them in the aquisition of English.
