Dyslexia Awareness Week – resources to support staff and learners
Dyslexia Awareness Week is 2nd - 8th October.
The week highlights and celebrates the diversity of the dyslexic community with the theme for this year being ‘Uniquely You’.
With the British Dyslexia Association estimating that 10% of the population is believed to be dyslexic, the week provides a much-needed opportunity for us highlight dyslexia and update ourselves and our colleagues with practical guidance. There are a range of free resources available including support for parents and carers. Download them here.
For those wanting to educate themselves further about dyslexia, there is a range of free, practical and accessible resources to explore, created by the British Dyslexia Association: Information for educators can be found here and information for employers here.
