Both Bilingual Education and English as a Second Language (ESL) work to ensure that second language learners develop their English speaking skills. ESL is a component of a Bilingual Education Program, but Bilingual Education is not always a component of an ESL program. Bilingual Education focuses on the development of academic and social language skills in both English and Spanish. ESL focuses on teaching academic and social English language skills to English Language Learners.
