EMTAS is part of Children's Services within Hampshire County Council.

Our service supports schools and families across Hampshire in raising ethnic minority achievement, through bilingual assistance, projects, training, family learning and advisory support.

For Hampshire schools who have bought into our service we offer a FREE early profiling report and then often bilingual assistance to schools and pre-school settings with newly arrived pupils for whom English is an Additional Language (EAL). Please see our New Arrivals section on how to refer a pupil and see eligibility for free bilingual support.

We work together with other children's services, for example Children's Centres, Extended Services, Locality Teams and Services for Young Children, to raise achievement of EAL learners, raise awareness of working with EAL learners and ethnic minority pupils and promote parental involvement.
