Dr Jennifer Buckingham lists all the issues holding up the best reading instruction

Post by Debbie_Hepplewhite »

Dr Jennifer Buckingham continues to write about the issues holding up the implementation of high quality evidence-informed phonics teaching - particularly referring to the Australian context but with relevance internationally.

This article appeared in the first hard copy edition of the very popular researchED movement's 'newsletter' - and now it is published online:

The fight for phonics in early years reading

One of the most important things a child will do at school is learn to read, but there are few battlefields in educational discourse as contested as how to best teach it. Here, Jennifer Buckingham outlines the evidence base for systematic synthetic phonics as the most reliable method we have – and also why so many find it hard to accept.
Dr Jennifer Buckingham is an outstanding pioneer for evidence-informed reading instruction - a prolific writer and campaigner. Australia is lucky to have her fighting the corner for teachers and children.

Jennifer is a member of IFERI's Advisory Group:
