Magister Educationis - Med / The purpose of this study was to investigate the implementation of a Literacy Intervention
Programme with Grade One isiXhosa speaking learners in one primary school in the Western
Cape. The study was motivated by the persisting low literacy levels in the Foundation Phase
which have been reported in the Annual National Assessment (ANA) reports since 2011.
The Department of Basic Education (DBE) and the Provincial Departments of Education
have designed many intervention programmes to assist teachers in teaching literacy to young
learners. These programmes include teacher development workshops and the supply of
literacy materials in schools. Schools also have their own intervention programmes to support
learners who struggle with reading and writing. Despite these efforts, there is no significant
improvement in learners' literacy levels. Therefore, this study investigated how the literacy
intervention programme for Grade one was implemented in one township school in Cape
Town.
