Teacher Agency in Multilingual Pedagogies - Pedagogical Spaces in the Primary School

Through an ethnographic study that took place in highly diverse primary school classrooms in London and the East of England, this book engages with teachers' perspectives and children's descriptions of their plurilingual experiences, as it explores what constitutes, hinders and potentially facilitates teachers' agency in multilingual pedagogies.
