Between February and July 2023, Dr Tom Richardson delivered a number of online talks to the Scottish English as an Additional Language Coordinating Committee (SEALCC) and the Scottish Association for Teaching English as an Additional Language about the TEAMS project. These groups are national in scope and therefore have the potential to reach EAL teachers in most local authorities in Scotland, as well as their colleagues in most schools around the country.
Tom outlined the project to the attendees, its rationale, research tools, methodology and key outcomes, linking these outcomes to realistic scenarios the delegates might encounter in their own schools. The events led to other events and links with other professionals which has helped to spread awareness of the TEAMS project still further.
