Watching developments around the National Consortium for Languages from Scotland. Delighted to see this recognition of the importance of the study of languages to society by Gov. Study of languages, cultures & societies has to be embedded in education at all stages as a priority.

England has a language learning deficit, exposing a social divide. The most optimistic news is the formation of National Consortium for Languages Education ⁦@ncle_ioe⁩ ), led by ⁦@IOE_London⁩ ⁦@BritishCouncil⁩ ⁦@GI_London1britishcouncil.org/voices-magazin…

Diversity and multiculturality without languages? Will @aberdeenuni retain the Top 20 and World Top 200 university rankings without offering languages degrees?

This is my last year studying Spanish & Latin American Studies. I learned so much more than the language. Music, art and history belong to it and are inherently connected to language. They are the soul and give significance to the language. 1/2
