In our team of 10, 6 of us are parents of children who have either
dyspraxia, dyscalculia,ADHD, CAPD, dyslexia or CP. 
No need to buy a book!

How many SENco's or educations specialists with SEN?

Most of the SpLD teachers I know trained in dyslexia or got into SEN support
because they had a child with dyslexia, as did Prof . Angela Fawcett (DST).

Of the 6 SENco's I have dealt with the 3 with likely dyslexia, or any SEN
in the family were the most understanding and easiest to deal with.    So
50% based on that SENco sample  and 80% (?) of Sheridan's specialist tutors.

...........

I think I mentioned before  out of a team of twelve specilist  SpLD tutors
10 of us have children with SEN, three of us teachers are also dyslexic. The
senco and my closest colleague in my main school also have children with
SEN. So I guess the percentage is very high.
