| Abstract | The article draws on the elements of poststructural theory to explore the mismatches and alignments in language and literacy teaching discourses in urban Fijian primary schools. More specifically, it compares the liberal progressivism of whole language and literacy pedagogies with the culturalism that informs a key reading resource in the teaching of literacy and language. The constitution of urban Fijian childhoods emerging from these two major discourses is then compared with several cohorts of urban Fijian children's own accounts of their lives. Major discursive mismatches and alignments between these discourses and the children's own expressed life ways are noted. Where alignments exist between sets of discourses, children's language and literacy development are more likely facilitated. However, where mismatches occur, there are implications not only for children's effective language and literacy learning but also for more equitable access to language and literacy pedagogies for all Fijian children.
