Accessible intervention

By learning with Reading Quest, older students who struggle with decoding and fluency can regain lost ground and access the wider curriculum. The programme offers easy-to-use, 30-minute lesson plans, providing intervention for small groups or individual students.
Each Quest includes linked teaching of the phonic code, common exception words (red words), and key reading skills. Students then immediately apply their skills through reading engaging texts and targeted writing or spelling activities.

Targeted support

Reading Quest can be used as a targeted intervention to support children with no reading skills or who need short-term support.
Using FFT's bespoke online assessment tool, students' phonics gaps are clearly identified, ensuring students are taught at the highest point in our programme. A matching digital platform is included, to support fluency both in and out of school.

Who is Reading Quest for?

Older students

Reading Quest is for older students who need support in decoding and fluency.

It is ideal for:

  • students who have not met reading expectations at primary school
  • EAL students or those who are new to the UK educational system and may not have been taught phonics at primary school
  • students with high amounts of absence who are likely to have gaps in their phonics knowledge
