Hi,
I have just started the course and was wondering if anyone knows how long the assignments take to be returned, if you know what I mean? I have a daughter who is showing dyslexic tendencies although not severe enough for me to be concerned, and I help out in a class of children all of whom have learning difficulties, some more than others. Where I live it seems that the local education authority are very reluctant to 'label' any child dyslexic until P7. or so it appears. I know of children who have difficulties but parents have been told the child isn't dyslexic. Whether or not this is because the council would have to provide extra resourses to help these pupils I cannot say, but to me, waiting until P7 is a bit late and puts the onus onto the High Schools to help the children am I alone in thinking this?
