Subject: asking for help

I am a teacher in the English and learning support departments of a secondary school near Middlesbrough. I am doing a post graduate course on teaching pupils with specific learning difficulties, particularly dyslexia. My final piece of work is to develop an action plan that will have an impact on the whole school. I am looking at making the school more dyslexia friendly/aware. this is where I need help from as many people as possible. would it be better if every department followed a similar format for written work, homework, correcting (or not) spellings, do people with dyslexia want other pupils to know, how do they want to be treated,which are the best sets etc. Worksheets/handouts what is the best colour, font, size, spacing, use of images etc. Any ideas that will help to create a dyslexia aware and friendly school will be appreciated.
