To Jen McVeity, it is the difference Seven Steps makes that is memorable. Teachers are excited and reinvigorated. Students are engaged. Their work is posted in classrooms, in corridors, in school newsletters, on websites and celebrated in assemblies.
Seven Steps to Writing Success is Australia’s largest provider of written literacy education and has trained over 45,000 teachers. When COVID-19 swept the world and cancelled all of the company's face-to-face training, Jen and her team transformed the much-loved workshops into engaging – but still live! – online sessions. Now, over 3,000 teachers from Australia (and overseas) have joined Zoom workshops to learn how to teach great writing.
In addition, Seven Steps Teacher Hub – an online platform that gives teachers access to over 500 resources – has been completely remodelled to improve how educators learn and implement the Seven Steps in varying teaching environments.
With over two million students trained, that translates into a powerful legacy.
“I believe that the Seven Steps program is changing the education sector by generating a foundational shift in the way writing is taught in Australian schools,” says Jen.
“We need to put the simplicity and enjoyment back into writing for both teachers and students.”
