To find out the attitudes and difficulties of primary level teachers, I used both open-ended questions and closed-ended questions. Data collected from informants were tabulated and analyzed applying simple statistical tools i.e. tables. From the collected data, I found that primary level teachers knew the global needs and importance of the English language. They had positive responses. So, they are practicing to use it to bring and adjust the students in English environment. Majority of the teachers are interested to support and teach their respective subjects through English medium. Moreover, most of the teachers found that student's age, different environment, less exposure, scarcity of instructional materials, lack of trained and fluent English teachers, less motivation and less interaction are the difficulties. Due to these difficulties they can't give clear concept to the students. All the informants agreed and presented their views supporting English as a medium of instruction in public school. Furthermore, the informants suggested to minimize the difficulties, teachers should be provided subject wise training with ELT materials. This thesis consists of four chapters.

The highest number of teachers (50%) perceived that testing listening includes teaching as a basic skill and 26% of teachers perceived that it was tested satisfactorily.
