In November 2015, I made the decision to start The Studying With Dyslexia Blog. As a father of a dyslexic daughter and someone who cares deeply about the development of young people, it seemed like a good idea to start a blog that provided inspiration and information to the supporters of dyslexic learners.
To do this I regularly invite guest writers to submit articles from across the whole SEN 'universe' so

Since November we have had more than 20,000 views and I have been blown away by your support in reading this blog.
In the UK alone, it is estimated that there are about 6.5 million people that are dyslexic. Recent UK Government figures state that about 1.5m children have a special educational need.
For me, it feels like there is so much more work to do and I really want to reach as many 'supporters' as possible.
