English UK: promoting quality English language learning in the UK
English UK: with 350+ members teaching quality English across the UK
The English UK public affairs team are focused on campaigning, but the most effective way to get the message to Government is via local MPs, whose first duty is to their constituents. The Government and its officials have noticed the large number of letters coming in from and about ELT, so we need to keep this going.
The extent of the financial hit to UK ELT has been calculated for the first time in research done by English UK among its member centres.
The research, carried out by Bonard in June, shows a £257m loss among the 145 participating centres. Extrapolating that figure to the entire membership equates to a loss of more than half a billion pounds for the first three quarters of 2020.
The needs of UK ELT were raised in the House of Lords during the Second Reading of the Immigration Bill this week.
These sessions will cover how to open as safely as possible with examples, exercises and an extended Q&A to get expert and peer input for your particular concerns.
We are bringing all our lobbying efforts together with the publication of Teaching English to the world: how the government can help kickstart UK ELT after Covid-19, our policy position paper outlining 14 steps which would help the industry to survive, compete and thrive.
