We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Provide funding to improve diagnosis of dyslexia in schools
The Government should provide dedicated funding for schools to assess children for dyslexia. Many families struggle to have their children assessed, which can mean children with undiagnosed dyslexia suffer academically and get left behind
More details
Improving diagnosis of dyslexia could be achieved by employing Specialist Teachers who are trained to assess children for dyslexia.
Too many children are being left behind, or thought of as lazy, due to dyslexia. Class teachers are generally not trained to spot dyslexia.
Dyslexic children deserve better!
