Recorded session: Understanding dyslexia

We recognise that when a child is struggling, it can raise a lot of questions and concerns.

As parents, we might find ourselves asking:

• Could there be something more going on with my child?
• Why does my child find certain things so much harder than their peers?
• Could my child have dyslexia, and what would that mean for them?
• And what is dyslexia anyway?

These questions can feel overwhelming, especially when dyslexia is so often misunderstood or overlooked.

If your child already had a dyslexia diagnosis, this session will help you to understand exactly what dyslexia is and why aspects of learning can be more challenging.

During this session, you will:

• Gain a clear understanding of what dyslexia is.
• Learn how children typically acquire literacy skills and why this process looks different for a child with dyslexia.
• Discover the key signs of dyslexia to look out for in your child.
• Leave better equipped to support your child and seek the right help if needed
• Learn why confidence and emotional safety matter so much
• Understand what genuinely helps learners with dyslexia
• Feel clearer and calmer about your next steps

This session is:

• Led by a dyslexia expert and specialist assessor
• Grounded in real expertise
• Emotionally informed
• Calm, practical and jargon-free

This event is a wonderful opportunity to learn, with expert guidance to help you support your child.

Together, we can ensure that every child with dyslexia gets the understanding and support they deserve.
