INTRODUCTION
A. What is English First Additional Language?
We use language to make sense of our world through thought and communication. It is also a
means of expressing cultural and aesthetic values and meanings. Effective language use enables
students to acquire knowledge, express themselves, interact with others and manage their world.
Mastery of a language provides a powerful means of constructing and expressing diversity, identity,
knowledge and ideas. Through language students are empowered to name their world, and in doing
so create a better world than the one they have inherited.
For the NC(V), however, the study of a language has to be more than that. Language also has to
provide students with a means of communication in the workplace. In most cases this means a
language other than their own. While most students who enrol at an FET College will have had
exposure to the FAL, many will not yet be fluent or accurate enough. Oral fluency is also not a
guarantee of fluency in writing. In addition to this, the NC(V) English FAL curriculum has to fulfil a
myriad of purposes: it has to prepare students for the world of work; it has to create a critical
awareness of how language can be used; it has to prepare students to cope with their college
studies in English and it has to ultimately prepare students to pursue further studies if they so wish.
The following skills and content will be taught:
Listening and Speaking
Reading and Viewing
Writing and Presenting
Language and Communication in Practice.
B. Why is English First Additional Language important as a Fundamental subject?
Learning English First Additional Language should enable learners to:
acquire the language skills necessary to communicate accurately and appropriately taking into
account audience, purpose and context;
use their Additional Language for academic learning across the curriculum;
listen, speak, read, view, write and present the language with confidence and enjoyment.
These skills and attitudes form the basis for lifelong learning;
express and justify, orally and in writing, their own ideas, views and emotions confidently in
order to become independent and analytical thinkers;
use their Additional Language and their imagination to find out more about themselves and the
world around them. This will enable them to express their experiences and findings about the
world orally and in writing;
use their Additional Language to access and manage information for learning across the
curriculum and in a wide range of other contexts. Information literacy is a vital skill in the
‘information age’ and forms the basis for lifelong learning;
use their Additional Language as a means of critical and creative thinking: for expressing their
opinions on ethical issues and values; for interacting critically with a wide range of texts; for

challenging the perspectives, values and power relations embedded in texts; and for reading
texts for various purposes, such as enjoyment, research and critique.
C. How do the Learning Outcomes link with the Critical and Developmental Outcomes?
Identify and solve problems using context, individually and in groups, to decode and give
meaning to oral, reading and written activities.
Work effectively with others and in teams using interactive speech in activities, discussion and
research projects.
Collect, analyse, organise and critically evaluate information: fundamental to the process of
developing language proficiency across language applications and fields of study.
Communicate effectively using language skills in formal and informal communications.
Use science and technology effectively and critically to access and present texts.
Contribute to the full development of self by engaging with texts that stimulate awareness and
development of life skills and the learning process.
D. Which factors contribute to successful teaching and learning of this subject?
Language and computer laboratories and communication simulation centres should be
established.
A variety of teaching aids and text types must be used to facilitate learning.
A communicative approach should be adopted to facilitate learning in language and grammar.
Different assessment tools, other than written examinations, must be incorporated.
Lecturers must contextualise generic knowledge, skills, values and attitudes to direct learning
towards specific vocational fields.
