Team READ - I am learning
Team READ - I am learning
“I always get to where I’m going by walking away from where I have been.” ~ Winnie the Pooh
The Western Cape Education Department’s Reading Strategy was developed in collaboration with the Coalition for Quality Education in the Western Cape to improve reading with understanding amongst learners. The coalition (TEAM READ) is a collaborative association for all education stakeholders (including government, private business, NPOs, civil society and funders) with two focus areas: what teachers and learners must do better to improve reading literacy and a whole of society movement that will garner everyone’s help in improving reading. The WCED has pulled out all the stops to find ways to keep storybooks within easy reach of young readers and is grateful to service providers for making reading resources available in all official languages at no cost to the reader. Read anywhere, anytime.
