Creating an Australian School Literacy Policy: A Research-Informed Guide to Designing a Policy That Fits Your School by Dr Margaret K Merga is the new go-to guide for creating effective and holistic literacy policy.

Drawing on extensive analysis of literacy policy documents from one hundred and sixty-six schools in Australia and the United Kingdom, Dr Merga evaluates in this essential resource what makes literary policies effective -- and what can hold them back -- to provide a comprehensive framework for developing or revising your whole-school literacy policy.

Creating an Australian School Literacy Policy empowers K-12 school leaders, classroom teachers and library professionals to become literacy leaders and make a real impact on their school communities.

With a focus on ensuring clarity, depth and quality in these crucial documents, Dr Merga's ground-breaking guide offers you the opportunity to transform the teaching and learning of literacy with a whole-school literacy policy that meets your school's unique needs and supports your students to achieve their goals.
