“
The sessions were brilliant and also provided practical strategies and actions to take to ensure that we are doing everything in our power to address the literacy needs of our cohort. I felt motivated and inspired.” (Delegate, 2024)
Key outcomes
- Through the most up-to-date research, understand the biggest barriers to improving literacy across a school, college or trust.
- See a range of examples and resources that can be applied across a range of contexts.
- Know where to access support and materials to deliver a more effective literacy programme for all children and young people, regardless of background and starting point.
Following the success of our inaugural conference, we’re delighted to be returning in 2025 with a focus on the strategic delivery of literacy and oracy across a school or trust to improve outcomes for all children and young people, and particularly those who struggle with reading and literacy due to barriers beyond their control.
The programme will feature presentations from national literacy and oracy experts and practising leaders who will share research, strategies, and examples of successful literacy leadership.
The ASCL Literacy and Oracy Conference 2025 is tailored to support school, college and trust leaders as well as leaders of literacy from all phases and contexts.
