The GRT (Gypsy Roma Traveller) and EAL (English as an Additional Language) teams offer advice, support, training and guidance to all Norfolk schools. The service acts upon the local authority's role as a champion for the needs of children within education.
It helps schools to build capacity, become resilient, share good practice and to develop effective and inclusive provision offering a good education for all Norfolk learners.

The Ofsted Framework, ensures that school inspections will pay particular attention to the progress, attainment and attendance of vulnerable groups including GRT and EAL.
