Abstract

This study examines the role of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) and Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in shaping educational policies and improving the quality of secondary education in Bangladesh. It provides a critical analysis of how such policies influence planning, quality assurance, accessibility, and availability of education under varying circumstances. The paper also evaluates policy efforts aimed at fostering inclusive education, focusing on modern teaching methods and innovative learning techniques for better outcomes. Special attention is given to policy strategies designed to minimize educational disparities. Moreover, the study highlights how the integration of global educational standards and international practices impacts national education frameworks. By investigating the combination of CLIL and TBLT approaches across secondary schools in the Rangpur Division, the research reveals how continuous application of these methods can improve socio-economic and cultural development while enhancing both access to and the quality of education. The paper concludes by offering recommendations for policymakers and educators to adopt an evidence-driven, holistic strategy to ensure equitable access to quality education for all students. The outcomes of this study are expected to benefit educators, policymakers, and stakeholders committed to advancing effective and fair education systems in Bangladesh.
