Special Educational Needs: Dyslexia
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what support will be available for children with dyslexia under the Experts at Hand programme.
Answered by Georgia Gould
The Experts at Hand offer will support schools and settings with expert advice and guidance to help them identify and meet a range of special educational needs, including dyslexia. This includes strengthening early identification and supporting more effective, inclusive practice. Through the offer, settings will have earlier and easier access to specialist expertise from educational psychologists, speech and language therapists, occupational therapists and other appropriate professionals.
Experts at Hand is additional to existing statutory provision and does not replace established school-led approaches or specialist one-to-one services.
