Tiivistelmä
This paper sheds light on linguistic support concerning the language of
schooling in multilingual classrooms in Finnish lower secondary
education. We ask how the teachers consider knowing their students, what
the needs in linguistic and academic support are, and how the needs are
met. The data were collected from teachers in eight lower secondary
schools in different parts of Finland. The findings show that the means
to scaffold Finnish language learners are still in the development phase
as there are no uniform ways to support students with an immigrant
background in Finnish basic education.
