Re-engagement through story.
Too many learners arrive at Year 6 or 7 already disconnected from reading and writing. They’ve missed learning, struggled with anxiety, or simply never seen themselves as readers.

Traditional interventions don’t always reach them - but story can.

The Literacy Quest is our flagship re-engagement programme. It turns literacy into something learners do with purpose. Through mystery, teamwork, and narrative-rich problem solving, we help young people find their voice - and their confidence.
