About this eBook

First Published in 2000. Literacy is on the agenda in a big way in the United Kingdom. The principal target of the National Literacy Strategy from 1997 till the middle of 1999 was the practice of teaching literacy in primary classrooms. From 1999, however, the target has broadened and now clearly encompasses secondary school teaching as well. Very few secondary teachers, even of English, have received any substantial training in literacy work and, if they are to respond in the best way possible to current initiatives, they need help - help of a very practical nature which enables them to introduce more effective attention to literacy into their subject teaching. The aim of this book, is to provide an account of the good practice encountered by the authors, and offer some valuable practical support to secondary schools and teachers.
