At Gors Community School we are proud of the diversity within our community and within our school. Our school learners can currently speak 26 different languages including Welsh as a second language. In our school we provide support for all learners and for our learners for whom English is their second language we employ two wonderful specialist support assistants to provide language rich support both inside and outside the classroom.
On entry to the school all children for whom English is a second language are assessed by the BELLS assessment and support is provided based on their English levels. This is tracked regularly and our learners are quickly able to access all areas of the curriculum freely and confidently.
We are also proud to be a school who run a Young Interpreters scheme. Some of our older learners provide peer to peer support for the younger or less proficient learners.
