The MultiLit Program delivers direct phonics-based programs that support primary school students who are behind their peers to catch up in reading and early literacy.

It uses verified tools to identify student knowledge and skill gaps, and then addresses these with direct, systematic, and intensive teaching of the skills.
The Australian Government has committed $9.5 million to implement the MultiLit Program in 42 schools from 2021-22 to 2025-26.
