Training ‘Language policy’ for secundary schools in Leuven – Ciry of Leuven

In the school year 2014-2015 language policy teams from 14 secondary schools in Leuven received a basic training 'Language Policy Expert' from the Center for Language and Education. In the school year 2015-2016 the language policy teams are supported in the development and implementation of language policy at their own school. The Center for Language and Education specifically supports in determining a focus, develop a shared vision for language policy in the schools involved and the establishment of a language policy. This is done through school transcending meetings with the language policy teams during which they exchange on the process at school and are trained further in the field of coaching proficiencies et al. There are also four meetings at each school, in order to optimally guide the process. In school year 2016-2017 follows a phase of deepening on substantive and procedural level.
