As a dedicated school principal or teacher, you balance ever-increasing demands in schools every day. You work tirelessly in implementing engaging, high quality literacy approaches, and often reflect on why some students are not making the expected progress or achievement. Frequently teachers feel overwhelmed with how to teach such a wide range of student strengths and needs, or know how or what support to put in place.
The missing link in many schools is knowing what is proven to make the biggest impact in literacy learning and how to embed this into a whole school, sustainable approach where teachers feel confident and supported in making a difference for every student.
Reflective principals and teachers often ask:
Why do we have so many students needing literacy intervention?
Why isn’t program X having the expected impact on student achievement?
Why do we have so many children with additional needs in reading, writing or spelling in the latter years of primary schooling?
What writing strategies can make a difference for struggling writers?
How does this Professional Learning or research translate into effective teaching and learning?
What is the current research in this aspect of literacy?
At what point do children need intervention and how should it look?
How can we engage parents in their children’s learning?
Fortunately, improving literacy instruction and intervention is not achieved by figuring how to make this happen in your school alone…. but rather by following a proven, step by step approach to prioritising what makes the greatest impact in literacy achievement for all students
