Match the programme to your context
A programme that works in one classroom may not suit another. Start from the age group, language, and setting you need to reach, then narrow to programmes designed for it.
- Check the target age range and reading level.
- Confirm the languages and formats you can deliver.
- Look for evidence that the programme has been evaluated.
Weigh cost and support
Consider what it takes to run the programme well: facilitator time, materials, and any training. A free programme that no one has time to deliver helps no one.
