Description
The European Language Portfolio for young learners (age 7–12) has been designed for use in Latvian primary schools by a project group of the Latvian Association of English Language Teachers (LATE) with the support of the State Language Agency.

A Companion Volume to the European Language Portfolio for young learners has also been developed in the form of an English version of the Language Biography, so that those students who cannot read Latvian will nevertheless be able to gauge their progress in language learning. Also teachers in other countries who know English will be able to use it to assess the language learning progress of their students from Latvia.

For more information on the European Language Portfolio in Latvia see the website of the Latvian Language Agency (in Latvian only).
