NLNW is run by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations. It represents a collaborative approach by all Governments and school communities to highlight the importance of literacy and numeracy skills.
The Week aims to recognise locally the achievements of students and the work of teachers, parents and members of the community who support young people to develop stronger literacy and numeracy skills.
