Schools label themselves to be English medium considering that by implementing
textbooks in English language and adopting English as a medium of instruction
is sufficient to be English. In this regard, there is a need for a checklist or selfassessment tool to enable the schools to evaluate themselves to see their positioning
as an English medium school as well as understanding their role in it. This study
aimed to develop a scale to enable the English language teaching practitioners to
explore if the non-elite schools successfully fulfilled this claim. The scale construction
methodology was used to carry out this investigation. The sample comprised of
134 participants including school principals, coordinators and teachers randomly
selected using convenient sampling methods. A reliability analysis was carried out
to establish the authenticity and applicability of the tool. A satisfactory score of
test-retest reliability revealed the scale as a good fit to evaluate school support for
English language learning; therefore, the scale can be stated as acceptable based
on its psychometric properties.
