Literacy Across the Curriculum

Support from Lancashire

If in its widest sense, literacy is reading, writing and oracy, literacy then, is just good teaching and learning. Lancashire's English Consultants support strong whole school literacy policies and practices.

For support with a school audit, creating a policy, ensuring current practice meets OFSTED expectations or developing existing policies, contact Katy McWean (email: katy.mcwean@lancashire.gov.uk).
