QUESTION 1: LANGUAGE EDUCATION
POLICIES
1.1 LiEP Influence on Language Learning and
Teaching (5)
The Language in Education Policy (LiEP) promotes the
use of learners' home languages as the foundation for
teaching, supporting multilingualism as a goal for
linguistic inclusivity. While LiEP has encouraged schools
to incorporate indigenous languages, its implementation
has been inconsistent. It has influenced teaching by
encouraging a shift towards valuing cultural diversity and
multilingual classrooms. However, due to limited
resources, training, and infrastructure, many schools
struggle to implement LiEP fully, leading to English
dominance and underutilization of home languages.
