Literacy Boost

Creating strong literacy foundations for early grade learners

Download Publication

Literacy Boost is a proven literacy programme created by Save the Children that develops reading skills in young children. It is built around reading assessments, teacher training, and mobilising parents and communities to support children as they learn to read through fun out-of-school activities. By the end of 2016, the World Vision-Save the Children Partnership for Literacy aims to measurable improve the reading skills of 1.5 million girls and boys in Africa and South Asia.
