Commenting on this appointment, Dr. Joseph said:
“I am delighted to take on this role and continue the excellent work of the current director Professor Ludovica Serratrice. CeLM has many links with our work at the IoE, including research into learning modern languages, learning English, literacy development and difficulties and to wider issues of social justice, diversity and inclusion. I hope to bring together researchers across the university who are interested in issues relating to multilingualism and to continue to work with the local community including teachers, which the IoE is already so expert at.”
