                       Background

Jeremy Stanley
Integration Division
Our approach to Integration


Common ground

Responsibility

Participation and empowerment

Social mobility

Tackling intolerance and extremism



                                      2
English Language and Integration


• 60% of people believe that not speaking the language
  is the biggest barrier to integration (Commission on
  Integration and Cohesion, 2007)

• 41% consider being able to speak English as essential
  to being British (“State of the Nation” online poll, British
  Future)

• Facilitates contact, participation, and social mobility



                                               3
Who are we targeting?

• with no, or a very basic command of,
  English.

• not eligible for mainstream ESOL support,
  therefore, those not in employment or
  actively seeking employment.

• resident in areas with high levels of need for
  English Language provision.

• aged 19 and above.
                                    4
How do we engage these groups?




• More suitable venues, timings and classes?

• Less formal styles of teaching?
