Welcome

At Parkfield School we are proud to welcome many children who speak more than one language and we work hard to ensure that all our children receive the education they deserve and make the progress expected.

If your child speaks or hears a language other than English at home, please let us know.

If your child speaks or hears another language other than English at home we can receive funding to support them with their learning, even if they speak English fluently.  To be able to receive this funding we need your permission to register your child as having English as an additional language.

Our past EAL (English as an additional language) children have received support when it was most needed and make excellent progress.  We are committed to continuing this initiative, so please complete and return the form below to the school office.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let the office team know so they can arrange for you to meet with a member of our EAL support team.
