Pre-primary English: Managing The Pre-Primary Classroom

What are the biggest challenges of teaching English to very young learners, and how can teachers manage them effectively?
In this episode, Sarah Hillyard and Faidra Faitaki focus on the realities of the pre-primary classroom, from behaviour and routines to engagement and lesson structure.
They explore how clear routines, modelling, and playful interaction help create a supportive learning environment, and how teachers can balance guided input with opportunities for children to take the lead. By emphasising repetition, flexibility, and observation, they explain how young learners begin to take ownership of language and use it with growing confidence.
