A Trusted Australian Literacy Program

The Fitzroy Program is a complete primary English resource that has helped answer the question asked by so many: โ€˜How do I teach my child to read?โ€™ The program has assisted homeschooling families, tutors and schools to teach children to read and write with confidence for over 40 years.



A Structured Pathway into Reading

Built around carefully sequenced decodable Readers and accompanying Word Skills workbooks, the Fitzroy Program uses a systematic phonics approach to develop reading, spelling and writing step by step. Children learn to decode unfamiliar words by applying letter-sound relationships and spelling patterns, building confidence from the very beginning.
