23048 (2024). Hon Jan Tinetti to the Minister of Education: Does the Minister believe there is a one-size-fits-all solution to teaching literacy?

Hon Erica Stanford: No. Structured literacy is just one important component of teaching literacy. For example, a teacher reading aloud to children in their class, while not structured literacy, contributes to teaching literacy more broadly.
