Hi there, I'm Jocelyn Seamer. Teacher, former school leader, author, and all around cheerleader for teachers everywhere. Learning to read and write is a matter of social justice. Every child deserves to learn through evidence informed practices, and every teacher deserves to be fully supported to make that happen.The Structured Literacy Podcast goes beyond the program to get to the heart of what it's really like to build a structured approach to literacy across the school.

    S7 E11 - What Does It Really Take to Make School Improvement Last?

    This episode is a little different. Australia's national education evidence body, AERO, has just released a guidance report that puts rigorous research weight behind something many educators have long known: most professional development doesn't work — and the reasons why are predictable and fixable. In this episode, Jocelyn uses AERO's findings to reflect on six years of Jocelyn Seamer Education, share what's changing about the Structured Literacy Podcast, and introduce the brand new Leading Learning Podcast — a dedicated space for school leaders, curriculum leaders, regional office staff, and system leaders ready to do the hard work of sustained school improvement. Plus: introducing JSE Quick Wins, a new way to get practical literacy support right when you need it.  Has something in this episode resonated with you? Get in touch! We have released Spelling Success in Action 1, a catch-up program for phonics, early morphology, and orthographic conventions for years 3 to 8. This program can be used one-on-one, in small groups, or as a whole class and is built on what the evidence tells us is the critical knowledge students need for strong spelling and the type of instruction that makes learning stick.

    S7 E9 - Why We Should Keep the Early in Early Childhood

    In this episode, Jocelyn pushes back on all-day, scripted, tightly paced instruction in Foundation to Year 2 while defending responsive, teacher-led explicit instruction as essential for learning across the curriculum. She explains why young children need a better-designed school day with movement, talk, and purposeful guided play so they can regulate, engage, and learn more.   Has something in this episode resonated with you?

    S7 E8 - Why Your Spelling Approach Might Be Working Against You (Part 2)

    The fastest way to make spelling instruction fail is to assume every student is starting from the same place. They are not and your planning shouldn’t pretend they are. I’m getting practical about what to do with the real mix of spellers sitting in front of you, especially in upper primary and early secondary, where gaps can hide behind “good enough” writing and familiar word memory. I also walk you through the key design decisions behind Spelling Success in Action 1, including differentiated word lists within a shared lesson structure, 15 to 20 minute lessons across four days a week, embedded assessment and progress monitoring, retrieval practice, and text-level application so spelling transfers into writing.

    S7 E7 - Why Your Spelling Approach Might Be Working Against You (Part 1)

    Spelling is not a side quest. When it isn’t automatic, it quietly steals the working memory students need for ideas, sentence craft, and clear argument, especially in upper primary and the early secondary years. If you are seeing capable students write small, play it safe with vocabulary, or avoid writing altogether, word-level knowledge may be the hidden barrier you cannot afford to ignore. Jocelyn focuses on Years 3 to 8 and lays out what the research says strong spelling instruction should look like, versus what it often becomes in practice.  Has something in this episode resonated with you?

    S7 E6 - Practical Steps When Grouping for Phonics

    We map out a practical path to targeted phonics that lifts every learner. We define instructional precision, show how to gather the right data, and share a step-by-step launch plan that works in real schools with limited adults. • clarifying whole class versus grouping and why size is not the point • defining instructional precision and cognitive load in phonics • sorting data as a team and narrowing the range per teacher • assigning teachers to groups • keeping class teachers connected to progress and practice • reducing stigma with neutral language and parent scripts • aligning evidence, workload, and student wellbeing We have a free phonics spelling assessment in the resources section on the Jocelyn Seamer Education website, here.

    S7 E5 - What Does the Research Actually Say About Grouping Students for Phonics?

    We challenge the assumption that whole-class phonics with a little extra is the most effective route and explore why targeted Tier 1 grouping often delivers stronger gains. Using cognitive load theory and intervention research, we show how matched content can raise progress without creating waitlists or missed learning elsewhere. • why many Year 3 students still need foundational code • what grouping studies actually tested and why that matters • how targeted, explicit, code-focused teaching drives gains • early, intensive support over waiting for intervention • designing Tier 1 to include intervention features • cognitive load as a lens for matching content • when to keep whole-class and when to regroup • practical next steps for data, grouping, and progress checks Has something in this episode resonated with you?

    S7 E4 – The Top 5 Mistakes We Make When Using Decodable Texts

    We unpack how to use decodable texts with precision so beginners practise the code instead of guessing. We share the biggest mistakes schools make, how to spot readiness to transition, and a staged text diet that blends decodables with rich literature. • reframing the debate around suitability, not good or bad  • defining novice readers by code knowledge, not age  • risks of mixing leveled and decodable texts too early  • signs students are ready to shift text types  • planning a staged text diet across early years  • teaching set for variability while keeping decoding first  • free framework to guide movement beyond decodables As always, if you found this helpful, I would love to hear from you.
