Learn about how local schools support pupils who speak English as an Additional Language.

Research by the Bell Foundation shows that pupils with English as an Additional Language (EAL) are more likely to underachieve at school and that 1:1 tutoring is one of the best ways to support language learning. Regular tutoring from Jacari volunteers increases children's confidence along with language and communication skills.

Connect with families with different languages and backgrounds!

Jacari aims to support local schools in tackling educational inequalities across our city. Tutoring is one of the best ways to boost children's learning disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. A Bell Foundation report in Summer 2021 reported that children and young people with English as an Additional Language (EAL) had been disproportionately affected by the pandemic lockdowns. Bespoke 1:1 tuition from a Jacari volunteer aims to rebuild language support.

Calling all to cook for Jacari! You inspired our autumn fundraiser: Jacari's Big Night In.
You told us your memories of volunteering as a tutor with Jacari and so many of you mentioned the delicious food you enjoyed at your pupil's family home. This gave us the idea of asking our supporters to cook a meal to raise vital funds for our tutoring programme.
