Benefits of a dyslexia-friendly audit

Our audits help schools identify areas of strength and development, ensuring all learners' needs are met. This also ensures that parents, carers, and other visitors with dyslexia find your school an inviting and accessible environment.

Why choose our audits?

Our dyslexia-friendly audits stand out due to our friendly and supportive approach. We work collaboratively with your school to identify strengths and areas for development, providing practical and actionable recommendations. Our goal is to empower all schools to create truly inclusive learning environments for all individuals.

Having a professional carry out a dyslexia-friendly school audit helps schools understand how well their current environment, teaching approaches, and support systems meet the needs of pupils with dyslexia and other literacy difficulties.

One of the main benefits is identifying strengths as well as areas for improvement. An audit provides an objective review of classroom practice, staff awareness, learning resources, assessment methods, and whole-school policies, helping leaders see what is working well and where changes may be needed.

It also helps ensure that support is consistent across the school. When staff have clear guidance and shared strategies, children with dyslexia are more likely to receive the right support in every classroom, rather than relying on individual teachers’ experience or knowledge.

A dyslexia-friendly audit can improve pupil confidence, engagement, and attainment by creating an environment where children feel understood and supported. Small practical changes - such as clearer instructions, accessible displays, or alternative ways to record learning - can make a significant difference.

For schools, it also demonstrates a commitment to inclusion and best practice. It supports SEND provision, strengthens relationships with parents, and helps ensure the school is meeting its responsibilities to provide fair access to learning for all pupils.

Ultimately, the goal is to create a learning environment where every child has the opportunity to succeed, regardless of how they process and learn information.
