As part of the K-12 Literacy Supports Initiative, professional learning grants are in the process of being distributed to all school districts. Information on grant funding parameters will be included in the grant letters, along with additional guidance documentation to support district planning.
Further to the K-12 Literacy Supports Information Sheet sent out last fall, the ministry is working with the Provincial Outreach Program for the Early Years (POPEY), BCSSA, and other K-12 partners to develop additional resources for school districts with information on early literacy screening and literacy interventions. These resources will be made available later this school year.
If you have questions, please contact the ministry at literacy.supports@gov.bc.ca.
