•Participants will be recruited following standard TAFE processes for enrolling students. Participating TAFE teachers will invite 300 adults assessed at ACSF level 2, seeking basic education at TAFE in NSW to join the study. As part of standard procedures, students literacy and numeracy levels are assessed by TAFE teachers on enrolment day.
•We will recruit classes from TAFE Institutes in metropolitan and regional centres across NSW, Australia, including multiple Sydney districts, and Illawarra, Hunter, New England, and Southern NSW.
•Eligible classes will be learning basic language, literacy and numeracy at Australian Core Skills Framework level 2 (in one of 4 eligible course codes). Intervention and standard LLN classes will be matched on typical demographic characteristics including age, sex, English proficiency, literacy skills, course code, and region.

•Refusal to provide informed, written consent (or failure to provide consent from a parent or guardian for students under 16 years). It is a requirement of the ethics committees of TAFE and the University of Sydney that additional consent be obtained for students under 18 years.
