Literacy in the Foundation Phase Notes

The Incremental Introduction of African Languages (IIAL) draft policy Last document update:   ago

The IIAL Draft Policy provided a multifaceted approach to learning additional languages. It explains language as its own subject; be it HL or FAL. The IIAL provides a framework of programme requirements for HL and two additional languages at FAL level (DBE, 2013). The IIAL allocates instructional time between 23-25 hours for Foundation Phase learners in Grade 1 – Grade 3 (DBE, 2013).
