South Africa and Namibia like many other African countries, face challenges in literacy and this state of affairs compromises the learners’ academic successes in schools. From the reports of the Standardised Assessment Tests (SATs) in Namibia and Annual National Assessments (ANAs)in South Africa and Southern and Eastern African Consortium for Monitoring Educational Quality (SAQMEQ) and Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS)which are normally conducted in the country to evaluate the literacy (and numeracy) skills of learners emerges a picture that the Namibian and South African learners always perform worst. The study therefore sought to explore and enhance their literacy skills through an interventionist approach using the RtL pedagogy as a platform that enables this enhancement. The data generation tool used were three research reports from three teachers who carried out interventions applying the Reading to Learn pedagogy in their classes after having been trained in the pedagogy during an in-service programme in both South Africa and Namibia. From the research reports sprung a realisation that the RtL pedagogy can, to some extent, positively impact the learners’ literacy development. The factors that enabled and constrained such developments were discussed. However, what emerged from the findings is that some notable developments in the reading and writing skills were realised in learners. The conclusion of the study is that the learners’ skills of reading and writing can be enriched through the RtL pedagogy implementation, and a suggestion on the limitations of the study for better improvement was provided.
