The SCERT Telangana FLN English Remediation Module 2026 is an essential teaching resource designed to strengthen Foundational Literacy among students studying in Classes 3, 4, and 5.
Developed by the School Education Department, Government of Telangana, this Teacher Handbook enables teachers to identify learning gaps, conduct competency-based remediation, and help every child achieve grade-level English language skills through structured classroom activities.
The handbook follows the objectives of the Foundational Literacy & Numeracy (FLN) Enrichment (Remediation) Programme and provides teachers with a practical roadmap for improving listening, speaking, reading, vocabulary, sentence reading, and picture-based writing skills.
What is the FLN English Remediation Programme?
The FLN Enrichment (Remediation) Programme is a dedicated instructional hour introduced to support children who need additional assistance in developing foundational literacy and numeracy competencies.
Instead of teaching every child at the same pace, the programme focuses on identifying individual learning gaps and providing targeted support through structured daily activities.
The programme covers three major subjects:
- Telugu / Urdu
- English
- Mathematics
Each subject is allocated two remediation periods every week, ensuring consistent learning support throughout the academic year.
Objectives of the English Remediation Module
The handbook aims to help teachers:
- Improve children’s listening comprehension
- Develop correct English pronunciation
- Strengthen alphabet recognition
- Improve phonics awareness
- Build decoding skills
- Develop vocabulary
- Enhance sentence reading
- Improve Oral Reading Fluency (ORF)
- Encourage picture-based sentence writing
- Bridge foundational learning gaps systematically

The FLN Remediation Programme addresses these challenges through structured intervention before learning gaps become permanent.
