Helping to stop dyslexic learners underperforming at school
Free webinar series
Kingston University's School of Education and the Driver Youth Trust are sponsoring a series of free remote workshops to equip educational professionals and parents to use technology and strategies effectively to ensure children and young people who struggle with literacy are supported to achieve their full potential at school.
Many students now have access to devices that have the potential to dramatically improve grades but have not been taught how to use them in this way. Recognising that the effective use of technology could be a quick and easy way to raise attainment, we invite our partner schools and all who support dyslexic learners to attend.
Webinars will be scheduled in the first week of each month from November to March from 6–7pm. They are scheduled to be convenient for both parents and educational professionals.
Who should attend?
Any adult who supports learners from early years onwards. It's never too early to set learners up for academic success.
