The Literacy Intervention Toolkit (LIT) Programme is a mindful and metacognitive teaching programme that targets the lowest achieving 20% of pupils in Year 7. It aims to accelerate their progress in English, and across the wider curriculum, enabling them to reach age-related expectations by the end of the academic year.
The LIT programme has achieved local and national recognition and recent progress data shows pupils making 3 to 4 years of progress in a single academic year. It is currently being used in 200 secondary schools in the UK.
