Our small, dedicated educational charity, Real Action, was founded in 1997 and became a registered charity in 1998. Based in the Queen’s Park ward of Westminster, Real Action was set up by members of the community it serves so as to effectively identify and address the educational needs of a deprived inner-city community, beset by the criminality of child gangs who roamed the Mozart Estate in the north Westminster – and were found to be illiterate. The documented, proven, the success of nearly 3,000 primary-age children taught to read by our unique, replicable, synthetic phonics Butterfly method since 1999 suggests that educational disadvantage need not result from economic disadvantage.

Butterfly method since 1999 suggests that educational disadvantage need not result from economic disadvantage. Our Butterfly achievers tend to go to university.
We believe that what we do is unique. We exclusively use the Butterfly scripted, structured, direct instruction, whole-class teaching method devised and written by Irina Tyk. In order to ensure the results we keenly adhere to this uniquely concise and comprehensive method of instilling literacy-for-life to each of our keen, enthusiastic pupils.
