ABSTRACT
Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) or Content Integrated Language Instruction (CILI) is an integrated pedagogical approach which focusses on both content and language learning. Like every pedagogical approach, this too has its own share of challenges in implementation process in the real classroom situation. This research paper aims to identify the challenges of implementing Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) or Content Integrated Language Instruction (CILI) in the Indian context through qualitative study. 64 learners of grade VIII of a government school of West Bengal and 12 teachers were selected purposefully for the study. Through classroom observation, informal conversation and interview, it was found out that there were many challenges in its ideal implementation. But through proper training and awareness, these challenges can be easily sorted because CLIL is highly flexible in nature and can be adapted to use in any kind of educational system and atmosphere.
