Sincerely grateful for the OAM nomination in today's King's Birthday Honours and the opportunity to draw attention to the importance of reading. Thanks to the people whose footsteps I follow, those who work alongside me, and the teachers who give children the gift of literacy.

@aliceleung Had a heated discussion with my Year 11 son’s teacher about this last week. Received a warning regarding an N determination (as did half the class) after his teacher just realised they had not completed much of the set class work. Thoughts from experienced senior school teachers?

Time for media to step up. Teachers need respect, support and conditions that enable all students to succeed and thrive. https://t.co/DiPVcJlLtn

In order to teach reading effectively teachers need to understand the difference between the alphabetic principle, letter-sound knowledge, phonics, phonic decoding and orthographic mapping.
