Dd is moderately dyslexic and in year 5 at primary school. She has limited help - maybe 1 to 1 for 10 minutes a day. So she is not really taken out of class or is treated any differently to her classmates.
I've just visited the SEN department of the secondary school she is likely to go to. I was impressed by their commitment and expertise, but I had a slight doubt about how secondary school age children coped being taken out of class and taught separately for some of their lessons. Is this the usual way - or do other schools have a more integrated approach?
I can see all the advantages of having individual help or smaller groups - but wondered if children felt singled out from their friends.
I would love to hear of anyone else's experiences.
