What is ESOL?
ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) is a programme designed to improve English language skills in the community. By taking part in free ESOL classes in your area, you get to learn English in a friendly environment, meet new people, make friends and get help with local services.
ESOL classes take place across the borough and our ESOL Intelligence Unit in the Walsall for All team can help understand your needs and identify suitable classes for you.

This page will be updated, so please check regularly for details of new classes.
