  1. Too often when we see those three letters S.E.N next to a child's name in the register we also see a slight lowering in expectations - we need to maintain the challenge. David Bartram OBE, Director, Prescient Education
  2. Unteaching is harder than teaching. It’s harder to get a student to unlearn something they are getting wrong than to teach them the correct approach in the first place. Gene Kerns, Ed. D., Vice President and Chief Academic Officer, Renaissance Learning
  3. The benefit of using authentic texts when teaching EAL students is that the exposure to natural language at the right level will support their development. Carol Johnson, PhD, International Education Officer, Renaissance Learning
  4. The context of your setting and your learner should always inform your next steps. Emma Dibden, Education Specialist (SEND and Wellbeing), GL Education
