Feedback

I have yet to meet a teacher who says that they were taught how to teach a child to read.

With 800,000 Australian students at school currently and unable to read, I would say this is a monumental human rights issue. Wouldn’t you?

Let’s get reading, writing, spelling and maths right to give all children full opportunities in life.

With the continual blaming of students and their carers, while continuing to pedal whole language with levelled readers and running records , it’s fair to say it’s case of ignorant malpractice.
