Your child may be Dyslexic or have other Literacy challenges.

Dyslexia should be diagnosed by a Dyslexia Specialist Assessor to be certain your child receives the correct support.

I use the British Dyslexia Association approved Conquering Literacy programme which encourages your child to learn at their pace and ensures acquisition of Literacy skills
It is a multisensory highly structured programme for teaching literacy to children and young people with Dyslexia and Literacy challenges.  Conquering Literacy supports your child to reach their full potential and develop self confidence.



  'Conquering literacy' is a complete multisensory teaching programme and one that echoes the spirit of recent government initiatives that purport to effectively deal with dyslexia …….  is considered by most, to be best practice in teaching literacy.
