I came to England 2,5 years ago, at the moment im studying 2nd year at the DMU in Leiceter. Begining was really hard but with time I feel more and more confident with my Uni work. I can imagine and understand that for children which really do not have a choice of the country they live in must be really hard to adapt. Thank you for all your effort and help. Ewa

Very useful film outlining how schools in England are tackling the question of Polish pupils accessing the curriculum and integrating into the wider community through the school and its activities. In Scotland we have similar issues, albeit on a smaller scale. Some useful ideas emerged for me, including adult volunteers for children's reading and general learning suport ; using the creative arts to break down barriers as well as access lessons ( using photography) and interesting to see how the school's notions of non English speakers changed when the two Polish girls began to play the piano so beautifully. Teachers commented on how these silent girls suddenly began to communicate to the school through music i.e. even those who are educators and know that not having a specific language is no indicator of intelligence it still does matter greatly. To me the girls were perceived as having more potential than before , whereas it was only teachers perceptions that had altered. The girls were intelligent throughout their perid of initial isolation.
As a resource I shall show the film to other staff and it will act as a point of discussion towards future planing and provision.
