What is FastTrack Literacy™?
FastTrack Literacy™ is a structured early reading programme with 90+ integrated resources that teaches children how letters sound, connect, and form words. Grounded in the Science of Reading, it integrates the five pillars of phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
Children are not just learners — they become active participants in their reading journey through child-led learning and guided practice, powered by reggae-inspired songs and storytelling.

Why Early Literacy Matters
According to UNESCO (2023), over 770 million people globally lack basic literacy skills. In the US, 37% of fourth-graders read below basic levels. In Jamaica, less than 50% of Grade 4 students meet literacy standards. In Uganda, only 3 in 10 Primary 3 children can read a simple English story.
FastTrack Literacy™ was created to build strong foundations early, before gaps widen. We are connecting home and school for literacy growth!
"When children struggle to read, they fall behind in school, lose confidence, and face long-term academic and economic challenges."
Designed for Ages 5+ and Their Families
Primarily designed for children ages 5+ and their families because reading success starts early and grows at home. FastTrack Literacy™ is adaptive and can be used across a wide range of age groups, supporting learners at different reading levels.
FastTrack Literacy™ is also a great resource for educators and parents. CHEETAH® is empowering young readers and their families!

What Educators Are Saying
Real results from classrooms across Jamaica, the US, and beyond
"The iCHEETAH® has been a great motivator in my classroom. I use it as an incentive to keep students focused on their work, and they look forward to engaging with the educational games and apps."
"I had the opportunity to review CHEETAH® resources prior to their public release. I am encouraged to see FastTrack Literacy™ being thoughtfully adapted for Jamaica and other countries. These are the kinds of tools I would have valued in my own classroom."
"My son enjoys the decodable books and is building confidence with high-frequency words. He is more willing to read on his own."
