Could my child be showing signs of Dyslexia? - Parent Guide
If you are concerned about your child's reading, spelling, writing or memory skills, this free guide may help. It outlines some of the common signs of dyslexia seen in primary school-aged children and offers suggestions for what to do next if you have concerns.
Every child develops at their own pace, and experiencing some of these difficulties does not necessarily mean a child is dyslexic. However, recognising patterns of persistent difficulty can be a helpful first step in understanding whether additional support may be beneficial.
