Every Which Way We Can: A literacy and social inclusion position paper
In February 2005, the National Literacy Trust published "Every Which Way We Can", a position paper based on our findings two years into the three-year Literacy and Social Inclusion Project. The purpose of the paper was to review the evidence gathered and provide a resource for those concerned with issues in this field. It raised some of the challenges in the current policy climate, and proposed a "literacy vision", outlining the "perfect literacy system" that best supports those of all ages most at risk from their poor or underdeveloped literacy or language skills.
Key factors for successful literacy practice with adults and children most at risk are identified. The paper also provides a model for building parental skills, which takes into account the issues raised in the text.
