Launchpad for Literacy is all about children, the skills they have and the skills they need for all aspects of literacy. We use Launchpad for Literacy from Nursery, so that children have the best start to their early reading and literacy journey.

It is a systematic skill-based approach that identifies what children can do and their development areas, which sets next steps for communication and language development.

This is not an ‘off the shelf’ intervention, but an approach which through assessment, provides practitioners with the knowledge they need to weave specific skills development into quality first teaching that is supplemented with small group or individuals working with practitioners for those who have been identified as needing extra support.
