methods of teacher training – across all ‘four skills’; We will expand our teaching of English so that people can optimise their own employment, academic and
life chances; We will promote the use of more effective and robust tools to assess English (in all ‘fours skills’)
We will increase student mobility in both directions in order to help young people in the UK and Japan realise
their potential and to contribute to UK prosperity and trust between both
