We are building a national network of schools committed to helping us to understand how CAL:ON resources can help improve literacy outcomes for all learners. This will be followed by a nationwide rollout of programmes in 2027.
Over the next two and a half years, CAL:ON schools will have access to:
Bilingual, evidence-informed programmes and interventions, developed and tested through national research.
- Professional Learning (PL) for teachers, literacy coordinators, and school leaders, focused on reading science, language development, inclusive literacy practices, and effective teaching methods.
- Digital assessment tools including LanguageScreen, ReadingScreen, and ComprehensionScreen to identify pupils at risk and track progress across the full range of ability.
- Ongoing support and collaboration through Hwb, with access to resources, exemplars, and networks.
