Great Barr Academy is the second-largest school in Europe, with capacity for over 2,500 pupils. It currently has about 600 EAL pupils who speak over 20 different home languages. The diversity of home languages, as well as the large number of EAL pupils, can be very challenging to manage for teachers at the school. We talked to Hollie about how they are using FlashAcademy®.
Unlock the potential of EAL learners with FlashAcademy®’s learning app and digital assessment platform.
We support over 48 home languages and are now trusted by over 1,200 schools and 250,000 learners to accelerate English language acquisition. Our EAL learning app is interactive, engaging pupils with dynamic lessons aligned with the DfE curriculum. The inclusion of games reinforces learning and introduces healthy competition, giving students both a sense of achievement and comradery.
With our digital assessment platform, educators can swiftly assess reading, writing, speaking and listening skills. The assessment adapts the difficulty to each student’s abilities, creating an encouraging experience.
EAL-related admin is significantly reduced by using our teacher dashboard. This centralised platform allows teachers to assign lessons, monitor progress and identify who needs enhanced support the most. Integrated with a school’s MIS system via Wonde, it saves time on administrative tasks while enabling teachers to create bespoke lessons for whole-class activities, supporting a streamlined and efficient educational environment.
