Part 4 – Introduction

In Part 4, I will be writing about literacy. All, about how children learn to speak, read and write and the pedagogies we know help this process. It is about the research that underpins our knowledge. It is about what we should be doing to ensure all children become literate.

We do know how to teach children. We do know that nearly ALL children (SEND or not) can learn to read and write. Yet, as a society we do not seem to want to make the commitment to ensure that happens.

Yes, it is complicated. Yes, it will cost money. No there is never a simple one-sized fits all solution. But we could do it, if we put aside egos, professional jealousies and profit.

It is possible.
