The Pathway Letters
Helping you understand your child's literacy journey, one letter at a time.
When your child is finding reading or writing difficult, it can be hard to know what's normal, what to do next, or who to trust.
You might be wondering why they're struggling, whether they'll catch up, or what you should be doing to help. Many parents spend months looking for the right support before anyone explains what's actually happening.
The Pathway Letters were created for parents just like you.
Every couple of weeks, I'll share practical, evidence-based insights to help you better understand your child's learning, make sense of the advice you're hearing, and feel more confident about the next step.
Here's what parents tell me they value most:
Practical literacy tips you can use at home.
Simple explanations of how children learn to read and write.
Insights into common literacy difficulties and what they might look like.
Guidance to help you navigate school conversations with confidence.
The latest resources, articles and updates from Coded Pathways.
Encouragement and reassurance that you're not navigating this journey alone.
My goal isn't to fill your inbox.
It's to help you replace uncertainty with understanding. Because when parents understand what's happening, they can make confident decisions that truly support their child.
Why I write these letters
One of the things I hear most often from parents is,
"I just wish someone had explained this sooner."
That's exactly why I started writing The Pathway Letters.
When parents understand how literacy develops and why a child may be struggling, it becomes much easier to make informed decisions and advocate for the support they need.
I hope each letter leaves you feeling a little clearer, a little more confident, and reassured that there is a pathway forward.
