Write to your MP to maintain ESOL provision

Posted on April 4, 2018 by admin

Please write to your MP  to express concern about the Government’s  proposal to limit entitlement to publicly-funded ESOL provision to members of ‘settled communities’, as announced in the recent Comprehensive Spending Review.

There is currently no details regarding who qualifies as a member of ‘settled communities,’ which leads to concerns about the exclusion of people such as asylum seekers, migrant workers, or refugees. A reduction in entitlement could result in a large number of currently eligible people being denied access to classes.

It is widely acknowledged that ESOL classes make a pivotal contribution to the goals of community cohesion and integration.  We fear that  marginalising ESOL provision will further disadvantage already vulnerable groups in our society.
