Website helps dyslexic pupils
It has been designed by educational technologists at the University's Moray House School of Education, with the backing of Dyslexia Scotland and the Scottish Government. Sir Jackie, who was not identified as being dyslexic until the age of 41, is the President of the Dyslexia Scotland. He is a three time world champion racing driver. All teachers require the skills and particularly the disciplines of consistent practice to assist children suffering from dyslexia, or any other form of learning difficulty. Unidentified dyslexia can cause extraordinary damage to a young person's life and can remove any possibility of them reaching their true potential. This toolkit, funded by the Scottish Government and developed in partnership with Dyslexia Scotland, will help teachers identify the signs of literacy difficulties and dyslexia early in a child's school life.
