Disciplinary Literacy
Improving Literacy in Secondary Schools (Education Endowment Foundation) recommends prioritising disciplinary literacy: https://educationendowmentfoundation.org.uk/tools/guidance-reports/improving-literacy-in-secondary-schools/
Disciplinary literacy is an approach to improving literacy across the curriculum that emphasises the importance of subject specific support:
All teachers should be supported to understand how to teach students to read, write and communicate effectively in their subjects.
School leaders can help teachers by ensuring training related to literacy prioritises subject specificity over general approaches.
Further details are provided in a webinar, Introduction to Disciplinary Literacy on 28/1/21 from 4.00 - 5.00 p.m. Sign up on CPD Manager.
