British school that teaches English as FOREIGN language

Pupils at the comprehensive come from nations around the world, and a minority are native English speakers

Native English speakers are in a minority at the 314-pupil comprehensive, City of Leeds School, and headmistress Georgiana Sale, left, wants to raise standards.
With pupils of 55 different nationalities, many of Pakistani, Czech, Roma and Traveller heritage, she says the school's results at GCSE level are affected because of the language problem. Children at the school, right, will be split into groups according to ability rather than age, and taught English in what is believed to be a first for a community secondary school.
