 Hi can anyone offer any help and advice to me,

My 8 year old son has just been assessed for dyslexia in school by a SEN teacher from the local secondary school.

I now have his report which suggests he has no specific learning difficulties.I am encouraged by this but I am still concerned and I was told a specific reading test was not done.

Is this usual not to have a reading test as this is his main difficulty?

The assessment he took was made up of 9 short tests,alliteration,rhyme,spoonerisms,non word reading test,naming speed (pictures),naming speed (digits),fluency(alliteration),fluency (rhyme),non phonological fluency(semantic).

There is a very strong family history of Dyslexia.
Am I worrying over nothing?
