About the Service
A dyslexia screening provides an initial indication of dyslexic traits and helps determine whether a full diagnostic assessment may be appropriate.
It is a shorter, more accessible first step for those who are unsure whether to proceed with a full assessment.
Who is this for?
Children and young people experiencing difficulties with reading, writing, or learning
Adults who suspect they may have dyslexia
Individuals who are unsure whether a full diagnostic assessment is needed
Those looking for an initial indication before committing to a full assessment
About Dyslexia Screening
A screening is not a full diagnostic assessment and does not provide a formal diagnosis.
It gives an overview of strengths and areas of difficulty, helping to identify whether further assessment is recommended.
Screening can be particularly useful as a first step when there is uncertainty about the nature of the difficulties being experienced.
