Looking for a school focussing on Dyslexia
December 18th, 2008
This came through to us but I wanted to share, just incase anyone else can assist.
Hi, my son has quite severe learning diffulculties in reading,writing and maths. He has been tested for dyslexia and the report shows he is dyslexic.
He is going to high school next year on the Gold Coast. Does anyone know of a school that would be good for him. We have found some schools so far don’t want to take on children with dyslexia and can’t offer any support.
hi,
thanks for your email. sorry, i do not know individual schools there. it has been my experience that you have t educate the teachers yourself. this is why i wrote the books in plain english to make it easy for them to understand.
let us know if you find a god one and we can then pass that information on to others.
thanks
dawn

I did have a post on here…where did it go?? There are some schools on the Gold Coast where the teachers have been trained in an Orton-Gillingham approach through the Institute for Multisensory Language Education…Australia is catching up with other large English speaking countries and schools are willing to seek specialised training.
Please contact:imsl.education@gmail.com for further info.
