Assessment: European Language Portfolio

The junior version of the European Language Portfolio is a Council of Europe initiative. It provides pupils with a record of their achievements and progress in languages. It is:

• a way to celebrate language learning and intercultural experiences
• an open-ended record of children's achievements in languages
• addressed to and is the property of the learner
• a valuable source of information to aid transfer and transitio

The Portfolio has three parts and is accompanied by a teacher's guide:

1. My language biography
A personalised learning diary making children aware of their achievements as they learn.

2. My dossier
Where learners can file work and materials to illustrate the achievements recorded in the Language biography or Language passport.

3. My language passport
An overview of the learner's knowledge and experiences of different languages, including cultural experiences.

Teacher's guide 
Practical help on using the ELP in the primary classroom. This edition reflects the content of the Key Stage 2 Framework and includes self-assessment grids to mirror the Languages Ladder.
