Why Now is the Time to Become a Human Literacy School Community

Research shows:

According to DET student data, 60% of students are disengaged.

According to the Royal Commision into Victoria's Mental Health System, one in seven children between 4-17 years, experience a mental illness each year.

One quarter of students experienced high levels of psychological distress in 2020.

At least 20% of teachers are considering leaving their profession.

Human Literacy provides a really great platform for students to think about, reflect on and understand themselves and others. It allows them to understand what their contribution and their values are, not only the value of their own life but the value to the community and even going beyond.

"The S.P.I.C.E. elements have made a massive difference, especially in the Foundation years. The S.P.I.C.E. elements really help students self-regulate. They also motivate them during their classwork and they really are the foundation and the building blocks for the rest of their schooling”

"As a whole, Human Literacy has had a big impact for me in terms of allowing me to get to know the kids personally and as a group, improving them overall, their self belief and their attitude within their learning, which has had a great positive impact on our results and our student outcomes."

"I've really found with Human Literacy, at this school, the approach that they take using it, is how the students are connected with themselves and their wellbeing. You really see it through everything they do in their Mathematics, in their English. It comes out as a support from them”

I have observed an increase in the engagement of students in the writing process. This, coupled with the idea of mindful writing that has been implemented in the classroom, has resulted in an increase in students choosing to engage in writing activities when given the option of choosing between various activities to demonstrate understanding. It has been particularly effective with novice learners and their confidence in their abilities in writing.

Learning about the Human Literacy Pedagogy was an eye opener for me as a teacher. One of the most significant things it did was to help me “get out of the way” and allow students to learn at their own pace. Throughout my professional learning about Human Literacy, I came to see how much teachers slow down their students’ ability to learn.

The improvement in behaviour and productivity that comes as a result is amazing. A truly unexpected surprise, was the closeness of the relationships within the class.

Human Literacy is one of the most valuable pedagogies I have been professionally involved in. In the school setting, it improves behaviours and relationships, while empowering students to become confident learners. The beauty is that the students are being taught life-long skills which will help them to be more productive members of society.

After Human Literacy Professional Learning: "I was surprised at how much energy I had when I got home yesterday. I am normally so drained after planning days. Must be the inspiration! Thanks. Loving it."
