7. The basis of CLIL is that new subject content from other curriculum areas is taught and learnt through the foreign language. Children’s learning experience is enhanced by exploiting the links between the two subjects. Since it is used for real purposes, the new language is also learned more ‘naturally’, thus building on other forms of learning. © Crown copyright 2011, Department for Education.
