Dyslexia Guidance takes the reader through each stage of a student's school career, starting with commonly occurring precursors for dyslexia, such as a dislike of school, difficulty with letters and numbers, through to study skills tuition and access arrangements for students tackling public examinations.
Recognising that much of the remediation and support will be integrated into the classroom or come from the school's specialist teacher, the book features a range of practical advice and activities based on real classroom experience.
