This product is created by DCSF

Pupils’ access to and understanding of all subjects in the curriculum is dependant on them having good literacy skills. To address ways to improve literacy and English is also to address pupils’ competence and performance in other subjects.

This document provides guidance for senior leaders and teachers in schools who are seeking to improve boys’ and girls’ achievement, particularly in English and literacy. It is to be seen as a companion piece to ‘Addressing Gender and Achievement: myths and realities’ (00599-2009BKT-EN) a document which dispels some of the current and unhelpful myths about gender and education.
