Experiencing the increased linguistic diversity in classrooms due to globalisation, translanguaging is a transformative pedagogical strategy to support students. This study examined the significance of translanguaging in enhancing language acquisition and content comprehension, addressing the challenges faced by English teachers in geographically diverse settings. Using a mixed-method approach, we conducted the research in Indonesia with culturally and linguistically diverse student populations. Data collection included open- and closed-ended questionnaires to capture comprehensive insights into translanguaging practices. The findings of this study indicated that translanguaging promotes an inclusive environment, enhancing student participation and confidence by allowing students to speak their native languages in the EFL classroom. The participating teachers generally had positive perceptions of translanguaging, stating that it was a facilitative practice that helps students increase their motivation and engagement. However, concerns remain regarding the overreliance on the native language and its potential impact on students' outcomes in the EFL classroom. This study highlights the need to integrate translanguaging systematically to create inclusive and equitable educational practices, offering valuable insights for teachers, school principals and policymakers seeking to promote inclusive and equitable educational environments.&nbsp;
