Primary Hubs are a network of support groups for anyone involved in the teaching of languages in primary schools. They are coordinated by volunteers for the Association for Language Learning and are free to attend. The Association for Language Learning (ALL) is the major subject association for those involved in teaching foreign languages at all levels. It provides information and publications; organises professional development activities; acts as a public voice on behalf of members. The cost of membership for a primary school is £50 a year.
