The Urdu Focus Group is a chance for those interested in the teaching and learning of Urdu to get together and discuss ways in which mainstream and supplementary schools can work together to promote the Urdu language.

The purpose of the event is:

  • To find ways in which mainstream and supplementary schools can work in collaboration in order to establish a more fluent relationship with the support of the COLT project.
  • To find ways to link supplementary schools with mainstream schools as part of the Community cohesion agenda within the OFSTED process.
  • To gain an insight into the ways in which Supplementary Schools can have an impact on attainment and aid community cohesion.
  • To find ways to help supplementary schools become a more integral part of the community language agenda within the local schools and the local community.

We would be delighted if you or anyone else involved in Community Languages in general, and Urdu in particular, at your schools would agree to join the discussion as we believe that it could lead to very positive and fruitful results.

 

If you would like to participate in the event, please complete the attached Registration Form and return it no later than Friday 2nd October 2009. Alternatively, send us an email response to routes@mmu.ac.uk.
