Dyslexia

The Dyslexia pre-diagnostic screener provides a detailed profile of the client’s literacy, processing, and memory skills. This individual diagnostic assessment provides a profile of strengths and weaknesses, helping to identify specific areas of difficulty in literacy learning. For children and young people, this knowledge can then be translated directly into an appropriate individual teaching plan.

Irlen Syndrome®

The Irlen Method is non-invasive technology that uses coloured overlays and filters to improve the brain’s ability to process visual information. The screener identifies symptoms and determines how those symptoms may be impacting upon daily life. The foundation’s Irlen® Screener is trained to determine whether an individual has a profile consistent with Irlen Syndrome or not and advise accordingly.
