International Literacy Centre to offer in-depth professional learning

CPD English
A new literacy centre aimed at improving the reading and writing skills of children has opened at London’s Institute of Education (IoE).

The International Literacy Centre is to be run as a not-for-profit social enterprise and will offer professional learning and CPD through practical courses to help schools grow their literacy expertise.

It is intended to build on the work of the IoE’s popular Reading Recovery programme and will target pupils from the early years through to secondary level.

The new centre is to be headed up by Julia Douetil, who previously led the team at the European Centre for Reading Recovery. 

She has authored a number of publications on Reading Recovery and literacy interventions and is considered an expert in the field of early literacy intervention.
