Conducted by Education Week, the survey reveals a concerning gap in the training and resources available to educators who work with students from diverse linguistic backgrounds. Despite the growing number of English language learners in classrooms nationwide, many teachers lack the necessary expertise and support to effectively meet the unique needs of these students. The findings have significant implications for the future of education, highlighting the need for more comprehensive training and resources to ensure that all students, regardless of language proficiency, have access to a high-quality education.
