The real issue is effective teacher training in the first place.  I imagine 
that we all recognise that effective teaching for those with dyslexic 
tendencies for example, is invariably effective teaching for all.

It is about knowing what works, and how it works and how you can change, or 
adapt your own particular teaching style to the needs of the students in the 
classroom.

When the glorious day comes, where every school has a teacher who is 
confident about the appropriate ways to advise staff to help students who 
have not got the "reading message" our children will be better served.

If only effective training were offered to our schools instead of those 
beautiful expensive National Curriculum Folders our progress with those 
students who currently fail with what is on offer might be considerably 
better.
