| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The number of mixed marriages within Japan and the UK with one parent being Japanese has continued to increase over the last decade along with the number of children born within these international marriages. This phenomenon has enormous educational implications on how the bicultural children within these families learn and maintain their minority or heritage language. this longitudinal study will attempt to examine how CLIL can be adopted as an appropriate educational framework within Japan and the UK for the teaching of the heritage language and culture in the context of supplementary education.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
Incorporating CLIL can benefit how heritage language learners can develop an affinity with their heritage language and culture, increase their motivation and develop both their heritage cultural identity as well as their ability in their L2.
