How does the Early Years SSP Kit differ to the Foundation, Year 1 & Year 2 SSP Kits?

The Early Years Kit predominantly targets 'day-care' and ECE centres. These kits can be purchased by schools, but it is more commonly purchased by day-care providers.


  • The integrated nature of this kit includes pre-literacy, motor and oral language.
  • There are no whole-class screen display materials, as daycare typically operates with small group tasks.
  • The programs come in hard copy only.
  • However, the kit includes a generous training allocation within the pack. to support upskilling the daycare workforce.


Keep in mind that most of Australia does not have 'kindergarten' amalgamated into primary schools as WA does, so the main market for this kit is outside education. This is one of the primaryt reasons why the Early Years kit has a different design.


The SSP Kits are designed in two different formats.


The school format for Foundation, Year 1 through to Year 6 Kits functions differently from the Early Years Kit. https://pld-literacy.org/sspkits/ in that they are integrated and include:


  • Whole class screen display teaching resources and Daily Reviews
  • Digital and hard copy resources for the Volume 1 and Volume 2 manuals (which means that integrating multiple books, i.e. TimeSavers and Phonic Dictation,is no longer necessary).
  • A focus purely on structured synthetic phonics.


Keep in mind that for the cost, there are only so many programs that can be placed within the kit. Schools can supplement with additional oral language programs as required. https://pld-literacy.org/oral-language-programs/
