THE LANGUAGES COMPANY:

LANGUAGE LEARNING, LANGUAGE TEACHING LANGUAGES POLICY.

The Languages Company was set up in 2008 by Lid King, National Director for Languages.

We work with a range of partners to help deliver the National Languages Strategy. On behalf of the Department for Education we are

•    supporting the introduction of languages into Primary Schools,
•    working to ensure the success of The Languages Review
•    promoting the National Strategy and helping to coordinate its delivery

We are also involved in a number of projects and initiatives in support of language teaching and learning – supporting pedagogy, promoting discussion about language policy and increasing access to information and resources.  Our experience and our range of contacts mean that if you have a question about languages – The National Languages Strategy, learning, teaching and policy in the UK or abroad - then we will be able to help.

For more details of the National Languages Strategy and progress to date, access the National Languages Strategy website.
