Enhancing Literacy and Phonics Education in Victorian Schools

Enhancing Literacy and Phonics Education in Victorian Schools

On Thursday, 13 June 2024, The Hon Ben Carroll, Minister for Education, announced significant educational reforms aimed at embedding evidence-based teaching practices in Victorian schools. The Brainary stands ready to support these initiatives by providing high-quality educational resources essential for early years education. 

The Allan Labor Government’s new Victorian Teaching and Learning Model will be implemented across all government schools from 2025, emphasising explicit teaching methodologies.

This model mandates systematic synthetic phonics for students from Prep to Grade 2, ensuring daily explicit instruction in phonics and phonemic awareness for at least 25 minutes. 

This structured approach, backed by robust evidence, has proven effective in fostering reading skills. Victoria’s top rankings in The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) results underscore the effectiveness of such evidence-based practices. 

The reforms aim to maintain this high standard while improving outcomes for all students, especially those who may be struggling. By incorporating these practices, Victoria continues to lead the nation in educational excellence.
