The author of the Reading Rope, Dr. Hollis Scarborough, reminds us: oral language is foundational to reading success. If we identify language struggles earlier, we can intervene earlier. Earlier support = fewer children experiencing the devastating effects of reading failure. This is how we protect our kids. This is how we change trajectories. 📚🧠 #AIMSymposium2026 @AIMtoLearn

Our CEO @ellenbroome was honoured to speak at this week’s Education Select Committee meeting in Westminster, on the topic of reading for pleasure. “For very many dyslexic children, reading is not enjoyable. It is difficult, exhausting, and something that they avoid." Watch the full video here: loom.ly/1i6hVnA #Education #SEND #Dyslexia

To every young person being underestimated and not given the support they need: You are not the issue. You were never the problem. The problem is the lack of clear pathways to diagnosis, understanding in education, and access to the right support. When we change the system, we change outcomes. Let’s keep pushing! #CommunityQuotes #Dyslexia #PushForChange

Only 3 local authorities can say how many dyslexic children live in their area, yet around 900,000 dyslexic children are in schools. Our new British Dyslexia Association report ‘Lost in the system: Councils’ blind spot on dyslexia’, calls for dyslexia to be recorded so learners are visible and support can be planned Read more: bit.ly/49RfNeM

Every story shared strengthens the dyslexia community, raises awareness, and helps drive real change. When you make a donation, we’d love you to share why this matters to you. Try beginning with: “I want to share my story because…” “I want every dyslexic child to know…” “I hope my story will help…” Your voice could be the one that helps someone feel less alone.

Dyslexia affects up to 20% of kids — the most common learning disability. And only 1/3 of students read at grade level. So why are only 28% of Colleges of Ed teaching all five components of evidence-based reading instruction (NCTQ 2023)? We can’t fix reading if we don’t fix teacher prep. @NCTQ @RoomToRead @UnderstoodOrg @DyslexiaIDA 👉🏼New NCTQ data drops 2026: #findings" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">teacherquality.nctq.org/review/standar…
