NALDIC is the national subject association for English as an additional language. NALDIC provides a welcoming, vibrant, professional forum for learning more about English as an Additional Language (EAL) and bilingual learners in schools. You don’t have to be an EAL teacher or EAL specialist to join us. We welcome members from a range of settings, schools and organisations. Our mission is to promote the effective teaching and learning of EAL and bilingual pupils across the UK.

Check out our online shop to see our many specialist publications written by experts in the field.

Are you looking for an EAL course, a conference or a trainer?

NALDIC hosts regular professional development events and trainings around the country. We promote best practice in the teaching and learning of EAL and bilingual pupils through these activities.

You can also browse our listing of Associate Members, who provide training and consultancy in your area.

Online training materials, including video and documents, are only accessible to NALDIC members.
