Ever wondered why some schools are celebrating massive advancements in literacy while others are scrambling to keep up? Join us as we unpack the transformative mandates in Victoria and Tasmania that are revolutionizing literacy education. With Victoria rolling out mandatory daily phonics lessons and Tasmania following suit with structured literacy, we're spotlighting the profound impact these changes are having on students, teachers, and principals alike. Hear from school leaders who can finally share their gains openly and find out how these statewide directives are easing the burden on schools already ahead of the curve.

But what about those schools that are just beginning to navigate these seismic shifts? We journey through the emotional landscape of educators facing this daunting transition, guided by the Kubler-Ross change curve. From initial shock and denial to ultimate acceptance, we explore the human side of educational reform. Tune in for a compassionate discussion filled with actionable strategies and resources designed to support your team through these pivotal changes in literacy education. This episode is more than just an update—it's a lifeline for educators at every stage of the journey.

We have released Spelling Success in Action 1, a catch-up program for phonics, early morphology, and orthographic conventions for years 3 to 8. This program can be used one-on-one, in small groups, or as a whole class and is built on what the evidence tells us is the critical knowledge students need for strong spelling and the type of instruction that makes learning stick.
