Koorie Literacy and Numeracy Program
As highlighted in the department's Strategic Plan and in , access to culturally safe and inclusive learning environments and supports targeted to need are critical to ensure Koorie students achieve their potential, succeed in life, and feel strong in their cultural identity.
The Koorie Literacy and Numeracy Program funds Victorian government primary and specialist schools to improve literacy and numeracy outcomes for eligible Koorie students. Schools are to use a portion of KLNP funding to deliver small group learning support to improve literacy and numeracy outcomes for eligible students.
The KLNP is implemented alongside the Literacy and Numeracy Early Intervention Program (LNEIP) in primary and specialist settings. Koorie students assessed as needing additional support (as per program guidelines) will receive funding through the Koorie Literacy and Numeracy Program.
Further information is available at Koorie Education policy and Koorie Literacy and Numeracy .
