The language policy and curriculum in Taiwan have been balancing academic needs, ideology, and political intention. This is an exploratory case study whose purpose is to explore the interrelationship between teachers and administrators and immigrants’ perceptions of this language policy. Four teachers, three administrators, and a male immigrant were interviewed. Data were collected through interviews and a classroom observation in northern and central Taiwan. This study found that present policy has caused teachers’ difficulty in teaching these new immigrants due to diverse student body that contained elder Taiwanese and new immigrants with different Mandarin proficiency. Also, the textbook and limited resources and facility also had become the challenge for local schools to implement RCCC (Recognizing Chinese Character Class).
