I have a 6 yr old daughter, who may be dyslexic, I have recently started the course and as I am working my way through the first section, her behaviour and the symptoms shown by dyslexic children are very similar.

My concern is that:

1. the school has yet to pick this up,she is reading from memory (the words she recognises) which the teachers have failed to pick up on. She is now recieving help through dyslexia action. Should I bring this up with the school?
2. My son is showning similar signs i.e getting his letters mixed b and d, confusing numbers and writing them the wrong way round, does this mean he may be dyslexic also?
