ESL Detection Model Tool

The ESL Detection Tool will consist of a battery of questionnaires designed to promote early detection of ESL candidates. The design of the questionnaires will be based on analysis of causes and diagnosis, using research resources and cases study. The validation of the quality of the questionnaires will follow their design. The potential impact of the model can be seen from two perspectives: as a way to identify individual cases in order to trigger early intervention and support measures, and as a way to collect extensive and transnational information which will serve as a powerful input for a better understanding of ESL.

The Tool is going to be designed based on information and research gathered in three countries, representing the north, center and south of Europe, and hence the tool will model the ESL issue from a wide and global orientation, transferable to most European countries.
