Alongside our hub schools, many other schools have taken part in the development of the Learning Village through assessing the impact on learners, piloting various features and collaborating on requirements. The following documents provides some useful insights on the impact of the Learning Village on member schools.

The Learning Village team would like to thank all the hub schools for their ongoing efforts and contribution to the growing community of Learning Village schools.

Emma Prophet

LSA, The Grove Primary School

Really enjoyed the course, learnt so much and can't wait to get started with our students.

Patricia, Ema's Mum

Parent

Learning Village is helping her by providing the vocabulary and grammar she needs... we sometimes work at home on the Learning Village. We use the book of progress, also, and she has made amazing progress.

Miranda Howell

Learning Village Virtual School Teacher

Using the Learning Village for teaching virtually is an effective way of engaging learners, even if they have minimum English language knowledge. In my experience with young children, they participate enthusiastically in the online games and are swift to learn new vocabulary, using a structured approach. The wide range of resources available provide lots of options. It is easy to set them consolidation homework and monitor their progress too. Having everything available on one platform makes for easy teaching and learning.

Improvement Adviser School Improvement Team, Bedford Borough Council

I heard yesterday from one of the Bedford schools using the Learning Village. One of their staff was at an OFSTED reading/phonics session we were running. They were saying how keen their children were to use the resource, how it really helped as it was very visual and the very positive progress pupils are making as a result of using Learning Village.

Kasia Talbot

EAL Coach, Holly Lodge School

I have been using the new Plant and Animal Cells lesson with my Science Intervention groups and it’s great. It’s challenging but since we have already done the basic differences between the cells the lesson consolidates the students’ knowledge and works as an extension. Thank You!

Tammy Marsh

EAL Teacher, Amity International School, Abu Dhabi

I just wanted to say what a great time we are having with the Learning Village! It is such a fabulous resource!

Alistair Harding

EAL Coordinator, Holly Lodge High School

The Learning Village has provided our school with a very practical, individualised learning tool for EAL students, with a clear curriculum, structure and pedagogy. This allows both more and less experienced staff to effectively support students’ language development. There is a wealth of materials and resources available, as well as plenty of support and training to help optimise our use of the tool.

Jonathan Marquez

EAL Teacher, Academia Británica Cuscatleca International School, El Salvador

As a school, we are proud to be part of Learning Village and have seen the improvements the students are making in their EAL learning. We would recommend every school to be part of Learning Village as it is an essential tool that offers valuable resources not only for EAL learners but for all.

Catherine Brennan

Education Consultant, Better Bilingual

I'm loving the Learning Village - it is a fantastic resource and I keep finding new things too! My learners are so motivated by it and like the messaging facility.
