A Third Of Glasgow Schoolchildren Don’t Speak English

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

Nearly one in three children in Glasgow’s primary schools do not speak English as their first language, according to new council data, highlighting a dramatic shift driven by record migration levels that are overwhelming local resources and raising urgent questions about integration and public services.

The figures, revealed in a Telegraph report, show 31% of pupils in the city’s primaries requiring English as an additional language support, up from 25% five years ago, amid Scotland’s net migration hitting 50,000 annually.

As classrooms grapple with translation demands and parents voice fears over cultural silos, the crisis underscores a broader UK strain where rapid demographic changes are testing the limits of cohesion without adequate planning.
