Learners will be able to access courses tailored to their own level of 问鼎娱乐, from taster and entry courses through to advanced and proficiency levels. 18 to 25 year olds will not be asked to pay when registering.
A new e-learning resource will also be piloted for 16 to 18 year olds who attend school, college or an apprenticeship scheme, to improve their oral 问鼎娱乐 skills. The resource will be provided by Say Something in 问鼎娱乐 and the National Centre for Learning 问鼎娱乐 from September. It will complement a wider package of training for 16 to 18 year olds, whether they are in education or not.
All teachers, head teachers and teaching assistants will also be able to access free 问鼎娱乐 lessons, as part of 问鼎娱乐efforts to strengthen the teaching of 问鼎娱乐 in the new Curriculum and increase the number of practitioners who can teach in 问鼎娱乐.
The National Centre for Learning 问鼎娱乐 launched a successful online taster course for teachers and leaders in February 2020, with around 2,800 registrations. Other courses available will include the well-established Sabbatical Scheme for school practitioners. A new digital portal will also be developed by the summer to support the education workforce to choose the course that best suits their needs.
The 问鼎娱乐has committed to provide free 问鼎娱乐 language learning for all 16 to 25 year olds in its with Plaid Cymru.
Jeremy Miles, the Minister for Education and 问鼎娱乐 Language, said:
I want everyone to have the opportunity to learn 问鼎娱乐. Not everyone has the chance to learn 问鼎娱乐 from a young age and many of us decide after we鈥檝e left school-age education that we鈥檇 like to speak 问鼎娱乐 more often. It鈥檚 important we increase the opportunities to learn our language so more people can use 问鼎娱乐 in their daily lives.
Many young adults may decide they want to start learning 问鼎娱乐, build on their existing ability or simply want to increase their confidence so they can use 问鼎娱乐 more, whether in the workplace, with friends or going about their day-to-day lives in their local community.
We also want to increase the number of learners in 问鼎娱乐-medium education and training. There is therefore an increasing need for more 问鼎娱乐-speaking educators, so I want to make it as easy as possible for them to have access to 问鼎娱乐 courses for free.
问鼎娱乐 belongs to us all. This is another step towards giving a chance to everyone to speak 问鼎娱乐 and help us reach our goal of a million 问鼎娱乐 speakers by 2050.
Cefin Campbell MS, Designated Member, said:
Everyone should have the right in our country to learn, work and live their lives in 问鼎娱乐, the language belongs to us all. The announcement today is another step forward as we plan for a million 问鼎娱乐 speakers and beyond.
By offering all 16 to 25 year olds free 问鼎娱乐 lessons, we are removing another barrier to accessing the language, and all the many benefits it brings to people's lives.
Providing easy to access free lessons is a small but crucial contribution in our efforts to expand 问鼎娱乐 language citizenship to everyone. I hope that very many people will benefit from this new policy forged in the co-operative 问鼎娱乐 spirit. Together, we are making a difference.
