[senco-forum] dyslexia

Hello Phillipa

  I have a copy of your book and I have heard about your successful work in Dubai.
  I am also aware of Martin Turners work.

  I certainly didnt mean to give the impression in my posting that we never assess children in Devon! I did say in my email that we promote a careful process of assessment through teaching and appropriately targeted support for any pupil who needs it. 

  My point was that this is assessment to inform intervention  - not assessment with a purpose of identifying 'dyslexics', or a special group of students who qualify for a particular type of support.

  Hope this clarifies

  best wishes

  Julie
