Learning from USA - Page Scholarship visit

The Walter Hines Page Scholarship offers EIS teacher members a unique funded opportunity to travel throughout America, learning about their chosen field within education. This as an excellent opportunity for teachers in Scotland to learn from a country which has a long history of supporting pupils for whom English is an additional language and to pass on the benefits to pupils, many of whom have come from Eastern Europe and in particular from Poland in recent years.

This case study details the experience of a teacher from Scotland who benefited from the scholarship in 2007.
