Dyslexia primary and secondary schools

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability in which children and adults have difficulty reading and spelling at the word level. It is caused by problems with phonological awareness, which affects the ability to correctly process sounds and letters. Dyslexia is often characterized by persistent problems with word recognition, spelling and automating reading skills. This disorder can be diagnosed beginning in late grade 4 and has a lasting effect on language processing.
