Short dyslexia screening

A gentle first step in understanding your child's learning

A screening provides an initial indication of whether your child's difficulties may be linked to dyslexia and whether further assessment might be helpful.

What does it involve?

The screening includes activities that explore how your child processes sounds and develops literacy skills. This may include phonological awareness, reading and fluency, spelling and writing.

When is a screener helpful?

Your child's literacy progress feels slower than expected.
They are trying hard but still finding things difficult.
Their confidence is beginning to dip.
You are unsure whether a full assessment is needed.

What happens after?

Following the session, you will receive a clear summary of the findings and initial indications. This is not a diagnosis, but it provides helpful guidance on your child's learning profile and whether further assessment may be beneficial.

We will talk through the results together and discuss practical next steps, whether that is support at home, in school or considering a full diagnostic assessment.

Screening cost
