The Association of Language and Literacy Educators-Reading Sierra Leone (TALLE-RSL) is a registered non-governmental and non-profit organisation. It was formed in 2004 on the solid conviction of language and numeracy educators that the promotion of quality language and numeracy abilities is a critical variable in the development process of any nation. So, effective teaching and learning of Language and Numeracy skills have been the main focus within the Mission Statement of the TALLE-RSL framework. It works to support the development process of the educational system of Sierra Leone.

Language and Numeracy educators in Teacher Training Institutions, Polytechnics and Universities have been playing leading roles in uniting experiences in preservice instruction, in-service workshops, conferences and research programmes to network the best in promoting the effective teaching of language and numeracy skills, especially in the early and upper grades. Governmental documents further supported this drive, especially the 1991 constitution and the new 2010 Education policy, which recognise the teaching and learning of language and literacy skills in schools and tertiary institutions as ingredients for sustainable development.
