About Coded Pathways
Helping families find clarity when reading and spelling don't seem to make sense
Watching your child work hard without making the progress you expected can be confusing and overwhelming.
You may have tried extra practice, spoken with teachers or wondered whether they simply need more time. Yet you're still left asking the same question:
Why is this so hard?
At Coded Pathways, I work with children who are finding reading, spelling and writing more difficult than expected. My role is to help families move from uncertainty to understanding through specialist literacy assessment and evidence-informed intervention.
Because once you understand why your child is struggling, you can make confident decisions about what comes next.
Meet Janette
Literacy Specialist & Learning Advocate
Hi, I'm Janette.
I'm a literacy specialist, educator and mum, and I'm passionate about helping children experience success with reading, spelling and writing.
Throughout my career as a classroom teacher, literacy leader and learner diversity leader, I met many children who were working incredibly hard but still weren't making the progress everyone expected.
I also met many parents who felt confused.
They knew something wasn't quite right, but they didn't know why.
Those experiences shaped the way I approach literacy today.
Rather than asking, "How can we help this child read better?" I first ask,
"What's getting in the way of learning?"
Because understanding comes before effective support.
That's why I created Coded Pathways.
To provide families with clear answers, practical guidance and a personalised pathway forward.
My approach
🍃 Every child learns differently.
📚 Reading, spelling and writing don't develop in isolation, and difficulties rarely have a single cause.
🧠 My assessments explore how literacy skills are developing, where learning may be breaking down and how other factors, such as language, attention, regulation or sensory needs, may be influencing progress.
⭐️ The goal isn't simply to identify difficulties.
📚 It's to understand your child's unique learning profile so support can be targeted, purposeful and effective.
Experience and qualifications
My work is grounded in the Science of Reading and structured literacy approaches, supported by many years of classroom teaching, literacy leadership and specialist training.
I'm an accredited Sounds-Write practitioner and have completed specialist training in Specific Learning Disability through DSF.
I'm also accredited with the Australian Dyslexia Association in recognition of demonstrated expertise in supporting children with significant reading, spelling and writing difficulties.
These qualifications don't just represent professional development.
They reflect my commitment to providing families with assessment and support that is evidence-informed, practical and tailored to each child's individual needs.
What you can expect
When you work with Coded Pathways, my goal isn't simply to complete an assessment.
It's to help you understand your child.
Together we'll build a clear picture of how they're learning, what's making literacy difficult and what support is likely to have the greatest impact.
Whether that means recommendations for home, adjustments at school or ongoing intervention, you'll leave with greater clarity and confidence about the next steps.
Let's take the next step together
If you're concerned about your child's reading, spelling or writing, you don't have to keep wondering what to do next.
I'm here to help you understand what's getting in the way, answer your questions and guide you towards the right support for your child.
