The Action for ESOL campaign has called a national day of action against cuts to ESOL funding for 24 March.
Actions can be large or small — the main thing is that we get as much attention as we can!
Ideas for action:
• a demonstration outside your college or workplace
• public meetings, in or outside college premises (if your college is not friendly to this, try local community centres)
• leafletting, pickets
• pickets
• symbolic actions such as: students taping their mouths in protest and holding hands round the college building (thanks to students at Greenwich Community College for this one)
• community language awareness and skill-sharing talks and workshops
