ESOL classes are vital for anyone with English as a second language, and provide education for immigrants which allows them to integrate more effectively into the UK society. Not only is funding for the classes being cut, but also funding for creche/nursery support, which will mean that mothers will be unable to attend classes, excluding them from opportunities for employment and socialising in the UK.
