Re: SQA ESOL assessments
Reply from Mark Watson, SQA Subject Implementation Manager ESOL /TESOL
"There are, as I’m sure you are aware, many teachers of other
subjects delivering ESOL in schools across the country, sometimes through
choice and sometimes out of necessity. MFL teachers and English teachers are
among those most commonly employed to teach ESOL if there is no EAL teacher
option.
The decision on this rests with the school and the local authority within which the school sits. They will have their own criteria and regulations regarding qualifications/assessor awards, so the teacher would be best to check through those routes."
