About the project
Language Strengthening Efforts during School Holidays, SIUS is a government initiative aimed at strengthening students’ reading skills.

It is a pilot program in which the Swedish National Agency for Education has commissioned our research group, IntensiveSwedish, to develop and test a model for language strengthening efforts during school holidays. School authorities, teachers, and student teachers are offered access to teaching materials, methods, mini‑trainings, and networks for exchanging experiences. It is also possible to apply for government grants to support students’ language‑enhancing instruction during the school holidays.
