My friend is having some issues with her DS and in a meeting suggested that he could have dyslexia. I was surprised that she got the reply "Oh we don't do that in St Helens, plus DS is being supported anyway, so what difference does it make"
I personally would have asked if it's not something the Dr checks for, and seemingly not something the LEA check for, then who's responsibility is it?
What if her son's 'other' issues are because of any possible dyslexia, rather than ie ASD?
What do you think?
