Statement of Intent

Sarasas Ektra School,English Enrichment Program, Y10,11,12,

2019 Academic Year,as proposed by Mr.Andrew E.J. Barns, 21/4/2019

Aim and objectives

Aim

The aim of an English Enrichment Program, in a Bilingual learning environment, should be to inspire students to seek out and acquire more

and better knowledge, of the world and the people within it.

To enable students to understand and use language effectively, to appreciate, enjoy and reflect on the English language and make

meaning in ways that are imaginative, creative, interpretive, critical and powerful. To become thoughtful and effective communicators in

a diverse global world.

English is the language of the internet, business, diplomacy and of any serious academic study or research. What’s the point of learning

English? To be able to find out about anything you can think of!

English is the language of knowledge and freedom of thought and expression. With no functioning library at school and practically no

public libraries in the country, the internet is our greatest resource. Students must be encouraged to delve into any topic, from

whatever subject, that strikes a chord with them. To function in the modern world, the contents of their subject text book, can not be

the last word on any subject!

Reading should never be forced, but seen as the key to opening the doors of perception, to explore ideas and places, real or imagined,

which offer insight into what it means to be a person, as well as into the world within which we all exist. Whatever a person’s interests,

there is a book, article, documentary, or podcast, out there that can help them learn more deeply about themselves.

Fundamentally, reading is and will remain the main method of acquiring knowledge, for the foreseeable future. Sure, we now have access

to audio books, podcasts and over 100 years of newsreels and documentaries, streaming into our phones; but if they are only used for

playing games, taking selfies, sending stickers, or rewatching your favourite show from TV last night, you are being left behind.

Students need to experience the power of good writing, in a visceral life changing way, that speaks to them directly, as if it came from

their very soul. This connection shows what can be achieved and what to aspire too and can come via the lyrics of a song, a line in a film,

or a catchy slogan in a road safety advertising campaign, that has saved thousands of lives.

Objectives

By responding to and composing a wide range of texts and through the close study of texts, students develop knowledge, understanding

and skills in order to:

● communicate through speaking, listening, reading, writing, viewing and representing

● use language to shape and make meaning according to purpose, audience and context

● think in ways that are imaginative, creative, interpretive and critical

● express themselves and their relationships with others and their world

● learn and reflect on their learning through their study of English.

Values and attitudes

Students value and appreciate:

● the importance of the English language as a key to learning

● the personal enrichment to be gained from a love of English, literature and learning

● the power of language to explore and express views of themselves as well as the social, cultural, ethical, moral, spiritual and

aesthetic dimensions of human experiences

● the power of effective communication using the language modes of speaking, listening, reading, writing, viewing and representing

● the role of language in developing positive interaction and cooperation with others

● the diversity and aesthetics of language through literary and other texts

● the independence gained from thinking imaginatively, creatively, interpretively and critically.

Application

Base:

● A dedicated English Enrichment Room, (7th Floor Multimedia) with an internet connected computer and projector, is required. The

room will be used for numerous powerpoint presentations, film screenings, documentary viewing and tips on internet based learning.

Club/MI:

● English Enrichment Club, will be a great conduit for students to explore their own interests and love of English, in their chosen

medium.

Outside Activities:

● The English Enrichment Club should be the main conduit for all, out of school English activities and competitions. With sufficient

notification of such events, time can be used during ‘Club’, to prepare for these beneficial activities.

What is proposed above, must be seen, as a full three year upper High School program. It is not a quick fix, or a syllabus set in stone. If

supported and nurtured, students will not only gain confidence in their use and understanding of English, but improve their overall

independent learning abilities and demonstrate an understanding and use of critical thinking.
