Body
The United Kingdom's national centre for languages recently reported that more than 60 languages are taught at the community level, promoting bilingualism and adding to the nation's linguistic diversity. More than 300 languages are spoken by children in England, including European, Middle Eastern, and Asian tongues. This article from the BBC News presents the case that encouraging bilingualism will contribute to the nation's skills base and raise educational achievement.
