Dyslexia training to be mandatory in Initial Teacher Training

The Issue

Initial Teacher Training course providers should be required to deliver mandatory and consistent dyslexia awareness sessions. All teachers should be trained to understand dyslexia, its impact on learning and what constitutes dyslexia friendly practice. Teachers should be aware of when to signpost learners for assessment and when to provide appropriate intervention.
