About Locked in Language
The Company
While most people can read, many do not understand what they read or have the skills to interpret and utilise the information they are given. According to the latest Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) survey, 80% of South African Grade 4 learners are unable to read for meaning. While this affects their ability to cope academically in primary school, it also inhibits their chances of understanding more complex material in secondary school and their chances of getting into and coping with the rigours of tertiary education. Solving this issue is the foundation of our two memberships aimed, respectively, at Grades 1 to 6 and Grades 7 to 12.
