Follows DESC's 'Literacy for All' consultation
Eight schools across the Isle of Man are piloting a new English curriculum.
The education, sport and culture minister says it’s the first stage of introducing a new literacy framework.
It follows the ‘Literacy for All’ consultation which ran in 2021 – the results of which were published in March last year.
Julie Edge says interventions for children who are struggling with literacy are already available:
