Itis distinctive in that it brings together scholars from across the L1 and L2fields. Presenting a novel framework that addresses the positioning of bothlanguage and opportunity across different domains at school, this book offersa multilingual vision for all teachers. The Australian setting depicted serves asa rich example for similar contexts worldwide.This is an invaluable resource for students and academics in disciplinesrelated to language(s) and education, as well as teacher educators, schoolleaders, and practitioners.

Recensioner i media

“How and why language matters in and for (Australian) education – this book’s organising question – makes its publication timely and profoundly important, especially for a colonial-settler, migration-destination country such as Australia. The topics are comprehensive and essential reading for anyone interested in multilingualism and the opportunities it presents for schooling and education.”Margaret Kettle, Professor, Central Queensland University, Australia
