Whole-school literacy improvement requires a clear goal, aligned practice, targeted professional learning, and structured processes that support change over time.
This interactive Whole-School Literacy Planning Toolkit is designed as a guided professional learning experience for leadership teams. It combines video, downloadable templates and structured session design to support schools across the full cycle of improvement. Built across three phases — establishing a literacy goal, actioning professional learning in classrooms, and reviewing and refining practice — the toolkit supports leaders to move from initial analysis to coherent, school-wide action.
The full toolkit (available with PETAA school membership) provides the complete professional learning experience, including:
• step-by-step leadership and whole-staff session design
• video guidance to support facilitation and decision making
• downloadable templates for planning, implementation and review
• structured processes for building consistency across classrooms
Each module includes experienced leader guidance, editable planning tools, and structured discussion prompts, allowing leaders to facilitate professional learning that is purposeful, sustained, and aligned to the Australian Curriculum. Every move is built to create sustainable student literacy improvement and strengthened teacher knowledge, collaboration, and practice. Designed for use across a term or year, the toolkit supports schools to move from analysis to sustained, whole-school literacy improvement.
