This is for Leicestershire LA schools and academies only.
If you are an independent school and wish to access this training please contact LSSCoreOffer@leics.gov.uk.
This training is appropriate for all school staff.
We know that many schools are looking at how they can develop classroom practice to become more inclusive.
This course will be invaluable in ensuring your staff have an overall understanding and awareness of persistent literacy difficulties / dyslexia, the impact on the learner, and ways to support it.
The course focusses on:
- myth busting around persistent literacy difficulties / dyslexia
- the 2024 DELPHI study definition of dyslexia
- impact of risk factors on reading and spelling - including response to phonics
- potential wider impact on learning due to information procesing deficits
- impact on self-esteem and mental health
- classroom audit, adjustments, and inclusive practice
There is always time to ask questions.
Ensuring staff feel confident to understand and meet the basic needs of dyslexic learners remains our priority.
We look forward to working with you.
