Abstract

Foreign language education policies of the Caribbean have a regional consistency but are also country-specific, with unique research values and referential significance. In view of this, as the development of Chinese language teaching is conducted within the framework of its foreign language education system in this region, its own pedagogical characteristics should be adaptable according to the local conditions. Through an extensive review of existing literature in the areas of language planning and education, this paper attempts to conduct a holistic survey of the local policy implementation in different historical periods in order to summarize the experience and tendency for its development trajectory. Based on the findings, the paper puts forward some suggestions for the opportunities for development of TCSOL and propose a feasible direction for Chinese language promotion in the Caribbean.
