Administrative / biographical background:

The 'Our Languages' project began in September 2007 in response to the need to raise the status of community languages in the curriculum as well as the need to recognise the work of the complementary (or supplementary) education sector in England. The 'Our Languages' project supported partnerships between complementary schools and mainstream schools teaching a wide range of community languages; the project involved 90 schools across England, from 2007 to 2009.

'Our Languages' was funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) and was a consortium of four organisations: CILT, the National Centre for Languages; the National Resource Centre for Supplementary Education; the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust; and the School Development Support Agency. An advisory group made up of representatives from the DCSF, higher education institutions, the local authority and other stakeholders provided guidance and support for the project.
