Facebook Live: The trouble with learning to read

Tuesday 1 February 2022

On Wednesday 2 March at 7pm the British Dyslexia Association and Succeed with Dyslexia are joining forces to co-host a Facebook Live discussion on “The trouble with learning to read”

Do you remember learning to read? , or supporting a child with their reading? For most, it is a process that they acquire easily, but for dyslexic learners it can come with many challenges.

Have you ever wondered whether the way they were being taught suited their way of learning?

Join experts from our panel to hear why the BDA are concerned about the Government’s policy to promote Systematic Synthetic Phonics (SSP) as the sole method of teaching reading and why they have raised a petition asking for the Government to revise its policy.

Our panel includes:

  • Julia Clouter, Head of Educational Services, Succeed with Dyslexia
  • Sue Flohr, Head of Policy at the British Dyslexia Association
  • Helen Goodsall, Knowledge & Information Manager at the British Dyslexia Association
  • Hannah Flohr, parent of a dyslexic child
