Identifying and Teaching Children and Young People with Dyslexia and Literacy Difficulties

It is important to develop high quality interventions for children with literacy and dyslexic difficulties and to implement them thoroughly. This will require well trained, knowledgeable teachers and support staff.

Sir Jim Rose was asked to make recommendations on the identification and teaching of children with dyslexia, and on how best to take forward the commitment in the Children’s Plan to establish a pilot scheme in which children with dyslexia will receive Reading Recovery support or one-to-one tuition from specialist dyslexia teachers.

This review aims to help policy makers and providers strengthen practice, and assure parents that provision for children with dyslexia will be as good as possible.
