Mother Tongue in an International School Setting
Leadership
Singapore 2025
In an international school setting, some children’s mother tongue is not being taught explicitly. In other cases, it is taught as a second language. How could international schools address the importance of promoting the mother tongue of all of their students? This presentation will showcase some ideas and initiatives that could be adopted to address this important topic. The ideas presented would be mostly drawn from my experience as the chair of the mother tongue committee at The American International School in Egypt.
