TEAL Project

The TEAL project (TED EAL), an initiative of the TED (Transforming Education through Dialogue) Project, Curriculum Development Unit at MIC, is the first of its kind in Ireland and is designed to increase teacher knowledge and confidence in the teaching of students whose first language is not English. More commonly known as EAL (English as an additional language) learners within the school system, the project aims to maximise their potential in learning English as well as preserve their own heritage languages.
