Primary and secondary literacy year planner 2024-25 (printable)

Added 25 Jul 2024 | Updated 20 Aug 24

Calendar

Introducing our printable literacy year planner

To help you plan exciting literacy events across the year we've developed a printable calendar that can be displayed in your staffroom, or discussed with colleagues, to ensure literacy is embedded in activities throughout the school year.

Available in both primary and secondary versions, the calendar highlights important dates where inspiring activities can add an insightful or fun opportunity to support learning, and enable pupils to practise and develop aspects of literacy in an engaging context.

Linked to these literacy and cultural moments, we'll be providing evidence-based and curriculum-linked educational resources to help you support positive engagement with reading, writing, speaking and listening. For some moments, we also provide free online events for your school to participate in.

Where relevant, we work with expert partners to ensure that the resources we design embed inclusion, celebrate diversity and address challenging topics with sensitivity.
