Acknowledging and celebrating cultural diversity is not only a fun way of sharing experiences but also allows for learning about other cultures and is a fantastic opportunity to practice speaking.
Incorporating a cultural events calendar into your events list can positively enhance understanding of other cultures. It also raises the status of EAL learners and their sense of belonging.
Below, is a link to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Calendar 22/23 by UCL, with different cultural events. Ask your young EAL people about events that are important to them and plan what activities, meals etc would make that day extra special.
