State of Literacy

EPIT invites you to a conversation with two of Aotearoa New Zealand's leading educationalists.

There is increasing concern across Aotearoa New Zealand of the falling literacy rates. Studies show that on the international stage our students are reading well below average levels. But what are the factors at play, and what can be done to mitigate these trends and support our students to thrive?

Join us on a live webinar as we discuss the State of Literacy in Aotearoa New Zealand with Jilly Tyler and Michele Whiting. We will touch on the history of literacy, the sociopolitical landscape, the impacts on teachers and development of practices, equity in education and more.
