Birmingham Adult Education has never
funded 1:1 tutorial time. We have to fit it into class time, however short class
hours may be, so we can't do very much.
The point about lack of privacy is one of
our problems, as well.

Subject: Query re funding 1:1 time for
ESOL ILPs and tutorials
Dear Colleagues
NATECLA has received an
enquiry from a colleague whose college is interpreting their LSC rules as
meaning that GLH can only be used for whole group teaching i.e. not to use any
of it for 1:1 ESOL ILP/tutorial sessions. They are now at a loss as
to how to fund 1:1 time. I would be very grateful if anyone could
let me know how your college is funding 1:1 ESOL ILP/tutorial sessions
and whether you are using whole group GLH to do this.
Thank
you.
