To struggle with Literacy, or to lack confidence in one’s own Literacy skills, can be a very isolating and debilitating experience. Not everyone feels confident enough, or equipped, to deal with a student who presents with such barriers to learning within the context of a school or college setting – particularly if they are not teaching what would traditionally be considered a ‘Literacy’ or ‘Literary-based’ subject.
This course aims to empower and enable teachers in all subjects to aid students with literacy difficulties, ensuring that they are better supported in accessing the curriculum as a whole. The course will consider a range of challenges that students may face, from reading comprehension to written expression, and will provide a variety of practical strategies that can be applied in any subject area. By equipping teachers with these tools, the course helps to create a more inclusive learning environment where all students have the opportunity to succeed across the curriculum.
