Clil

[Xangsamhua]

I'm interested in knowing which schools are piloting CLIL (Content & Language Integrated Instruction) following the British Council conference in BKK last September.

As I understand, the CLIL pilots are using English-proficient Thai teachers to teach subject content in English. I think that's what distinguishes it from the majority of EP/bilingual programs in Thailand where content-based English is taught by foreign teachers (though there may be a small number of Thai nationals involved).

I'd also be interested in knowing how they're going. Posters may not wish to identify themselves with the name of their school, so I'd be happy just to get a general idea without anyone naming names.

I'm in a bilingual school and am interested in different kinds of bilingual teaching. That's all. I suppose if I were wanting a more formal update I'd go to the British Council, who I believe have set these pilot programs in motion with the MoE.
