The 2016/17 edition of the Language Trends survey is now live!

Primary and secondary schools across the country should now have received letters asking them to complete the online Language Trends Survey for this year. If your school has been selected as part of this year’s sample, we would urge you to respond in order to contribute to this important annual update on the state of our subject. The research provides teachers with a unique opportunity to make their voices heard by policy makers and facilitates our understanding of the effectiveness of education policy affecting the teaching of languages in our schools.

The survey was sent out by email to all secondary schools in England as well as a large sample of primary schools on Friday 30 Sep 2016, so please check your emails and respond to the survey if you have not yet done so. There is plenty of time to respond if you have received a letter but have not yet had a chance to do so. Although the deadline for responding to the survey is 30 Nov 2016, we would be pleased for respondents to complete the survey as soon as possible. Please contact Teresa Tinsley if you have any queries about the survey.

The Language Trends Surveys are funded and managed by the British Council with the support and professional advice of ALL and ISMLA.
