English as a Second Language/English as an Additional Language in Victorian government schools 2011

Preface This report provides information on English as an additional language (EAL) programs and support services in Victorian government schools for 2011. Schools are advised that as the implementation of the Australian Curriculum proceeds, the term ‘English as an additional language (EAL)’ will progressively replace the term ‘English as a second language’. This report is based on:  Language background other than English census This census provides detailed information on students from language backgrounds other than English who are enrolled in government schools in Victoria. All schools complete the census in August each year, providing details such as students’ main languages spoken at home and date of first enrolment in an Australian school. EAL Index funding for the following year is based on this census.  New Arrivals data collection Data on newly arrived EAL students is collected twice a year. There are two collection periods – 1 November to 30 June (period A) and 1 July to 31 October (period B).  EAL survey The EAL survey conducted annually by the Office for Government School Education seeks information from all schools in receipt of EAL Index funding. The survey provides a profile of the range of EAL learners and the types of EAL programs in government schools. Part 1 provides contextual information and broad data relating to students from language backgrounds other than English. It sets the context for the following two parts. Part 2 provides information on EAL provision for newly arrived EAL students. Part 3 provides information on EAL provision for EAL students in mainstream schools. Six appendices provide supplementary information. This report is published online and is available, together with www.education.vic.gov.au/school/teachers/teachingresources/diversity/eal

Part 1: Students from Language Backgrounds Other Than English Students’ language backgrounds In 2011, 127,975 students in government schools (23.7 per cent) were identified as coming from language backgrounds other than English (LBOTE) (based on the August census, 2010). A student is defined as having a language background other than English if either the student or one or both parents speaks another language at home.

Part 1: Students from Language Backgrounds Other Than English

Part 2: Provision for newly arrived EAL students In Victoria, the English as an Additional Language - New Arrivals (EAL-NA) Program provides intensive English language tuition to newly arrived EAL students eligible to enrol in government schools as non-fee-payers. The New Arrivals Program aims to improve the educational opportunities and outcomes of newly arrived students of non-English speaking backgrounds by developing their English language competence and facilitating their transition to participation in mainstream education. All newly arrived EAL students on permanent and temporary visa subclasses that do not attract fees are eligible for intensive English language programs, provided they are: • at the time of enrolling in the initial course of intensive English language instruction, undertaking primary or secondary education at a government school, or have an intention to undertake such education as soon as practicable after completion of the course; and • if entering the first year of primary schooling, enrolled in an intensive English class funded under this Program within 18 months of arrival in Australia or being granted a temporary visa under the Humanitarian Program; or • if entering any other year of schooling, enrolled in an intensive English class funded under this Program within six months of arrival in Australia or being granted a temporary visa under the Humanitarian Program. In 2011, 5,167 newly arrived EAL students from more than 130 countries enrolled in Victorian government schools, an increase of 377 students (7.9 per cent) from 2010. This includes students living in the Community Detention program. The National Education Agreement (NEA) between the Commonwealth and State Governments provides funding for the New Arrivals Program in Victorian government schools. See Appendix 8 for further eligibility details.

Students’ language backgrounds Figure 3 shows the percentage breakdown of the main languages spoken by newly arrived EAL students in Victoria. See Appendix 1 for a distribution of these students, by language, among the nine regions.

Countries of birth of newly arrived EAL students The countries of birth of newly arrived EAL students vary from year to year and reflect world events and Commonwealth immigration policy. In 2011, the highest numbers of students were born in China, India, Afghanistan and New Zealand, as shown in Figure 4. A complete list of newly arrived EAL students by country of birth and region can be found in Appendix 2.

Regional distribution of newly arrived EAL students In 2011, 4,627 (89.5 per cent) of newly arrived EAL students were enrolled in schools in the four metropolitan regions and 540 (9.5 per cent) in non-metropolitan regions. Figure 5 shows the regional distribution of newly arrived EAL students in 2011. Data by region relating to eligibility is provided in Appendix 3.

Part 3: Provision for EAL students in mainstream schools Amongst the 127,975 LBOTE students identified in Part 1 of this report, 45,067 (35.2 per cent) met the criteria for EAL Index funding. The criteria for 2011 EAL Index funding eligibility were that: 

students have a LBOTE background



English is not the main language spoken at home



students have been enrolled in an Australian school for less than five years



students are eligible for SRP funding.

In 2011, 466 eligible mainstream schools were provided with EAL Index funding. EAL allocations were made at a campus level and as a consequence some multi-campus schools received funding for more than one campus, but not necessarily every campus. In all, 503 programs received EAL funding in a total of 466 schools. See Appendix 4 for definitions of EAL Index funding levels in 2011.

Allocation of resources In 2011, more than $63 million of EAL Index funding was allocated to government schools via their student resource packages to provide EAL programs (Table 5). EAL contingency funding totalling $1,540,143 was also allocated to 17 primary schools and 18 secondary schools to assist them in providing support for EAL students who had enrolled since the August 2010 census (Table 6).

Part 3: Provision for EAL students in mainstream schools

Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) EAL Units 3–4 sequence students As the satisfactory completion of an English study is a compulsory requirement of achieving the VCE, students who are unfamiliar with the English language because they are from non-Englishspeaking backgrounds or are hearing-impaired may have access to enrolment in EAL. This provision is also available for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students whose first language is not English and who meet the necessary conditions. Table 7, following, details the numbers of students who enrolled in EAL in 2011, as a percentage of the whole English group, while Table 8, following, details numbers of EAL students by region, between 2005 and 2011.

Part 3: Provision for EAL students in mainstream schools

Multicultural Education Aides (MEAs) The employment of MEAs assists with communication between the school and parents of students from language backgrounds other than English. MEAs also assist students in the classroom in small groups or on a one-to-one basis. Table 9 indicates that a total of 348.6 EFT MEA positions were funded for 503 programs in 2011. The majority of MEAs were located in schools in the metropolitan regions, while Table 10 shows that a majority of MEAs were employed at the primary level.

A school’s EAL allocation will include a weighting to reflect the differing densities of Student Family Occupations (SFO). This weighting reflects the high correlation between student outcomes and family occupation in order to target funding to those schools with EAL learners with greatest needs. Table 2 below shows the weightings applied to schools which have differing densities of Students Family Occupations. Level

All schools reaching the funding thresholds have a funding component for employment of multicultural education aides (MEAs). The MEA funding component is around 25% of the EAL allocation. From 2007, this funding has been included in the EAL Levels 1-5 component of the budget. A school is required to reach the funding threshold before funding will apply. The combined EAL and MEA thresholds for 2011 were $20,016 for primary schools and $38,182 for secondary schools. EAL Index funding is made available to schools for employment of appropriately qualified EAL teachers and multicultural education aides to staff EAL programs.
