Welcome to our November newsletter

Dear Phil,

This month we focus on language, in particular maintaining heritage languages. This means keeping the language of family or family culture alive when it's not the dominant language in school or society.

How can teacher educators support teachers to build relationships with families that promote heritage language use? Find out in our November webinar, which draws on a range of research connected to preserving languages.
