Dyslexia causes difficulties with reading, spelling and other areas of learning.
A Davis Programme can help people use their natural learning ability in a new way.
You may be familiar with recent discussions in the news about the Government's plans to introduce a mandatory phonics test for all six-year-olds. These plans were the subject of a 'phone-in on BBC Radio 4's consumer affairs programme "You and Yours" on 10 April.
Six and a half minutes into the programme, there is a contribution by a lady whose son completed a Davis programme and is now taking five AS Levels. The caller speaks very eloquently about the Davis approach to dyslexia, the gifts of dyslexic individuals, and then goes on to express her reservations about the proposed new testing regime.
It is well worth a listen and can be heard on the BBCiPlayer
