International Conference for
Child Foreign Language Learning (CFLL).
“Between theory and practice”
Cracow, Poland, 28-30 April, 2016
Early foreign language learning is a priority for European language education policy, as evidenced by the conclusions of the Barcelona presidency (2002) with their stress on teaching at least two languages from the very earliest years. On 1 September 2015 Poland introduced obligatory foreign language instruction at the pre-primary level, thus implementing the European language policy guidelines in respect of ‘an early start’ in a foreign language. This has made it one of the few European countries in which a foreign language (FL) is taught to very young learners. In accordance with the reform, by 2017 all kindergarten children will receive foreign language instruction, which will guarantee equal opportunities for early foreign language education. Recent educational analysis shows that this trend has the potential to develop – in terms of research, in terms of educational innovation, and in terms of curricula and materials. Therefore, we aimed to bring together professionals from all relevant fields, to create a forum for the exchange of up-to-date knowledge and experience, and to create an opportunity to summarise achievements and current research outcomes in this area.
