A DfE-funded mixed method evaluation of the Language Hubs, Language Assistants, German Promotion Project and UK-German Connection programmes aiming to promote and increase take-up of language learning among Key stages 2 and 3 (especially German) and to improve the quality of language teacher. It comprises an implementation and process evaluation with surveys, interviews and case study visits with observations; and an impact evaluation using a matching QED approach with analysis of administrative data carried out by DfE analysts. It will also explore using LEO data to evaluate the impact on the attainment and employment of English Language Assistants.
