Every Students Succeeds Act A new education plan will bring sweeping changes to Tennessee schools. For school districts it will mean increased efforts to document student progress. The emphasis on English language learners and other at-risk student groups is part of a plan to comply with the new federal Every Student Succeeds Act. Tennessee is home to about 86,000 English learners . The Every Student Succeeds Act, is the most sweeping education law since the No Child Left Behind guidelines were enacted. The Tennessee Department of Education's draft plan says students not English proficient by their seventh-year in classes will be considered long-term language learners, requiring more accountability. Tennessee's plan puts a focus on some at-risk student groups for the first time and holds districts accountable for teaching those students. That includes the progress of English language learners, which previously did not have to be reported.
