Project X Code Course Details

Project X CODE is based on a gripping series of adventure books. They contain a cumulative, episodic adventure in a 3D style that builds children’s and motivation to read. They are based on a careful progression of systematic synthetic phonics and comprehension skills.

A trained teaching assistant or teacher normally teaches a small group of children for half an hour four times a week. Sessions are based on the books and help the children to overcome difficulties, develop their skills and become accustomed to enjoying success at reading.
