July 2021 Update: We continue to assess at our Leeds centre with COVID-safe measures in place.

Welcome to Yorkshire Dyslexia

Yorkshire Dyslexia provides specialist dyslexia assessments for children and adults in Yorkshire. We are based at:

 

Yorkshire Dyslexia
Ground Floor
3 Fusion Court
Garforth
Leeds
LS25 2GH

 

Who we are

We are two specialist dyslexia assessors who are experienced teachers working in primary and secondary schools, mainstream and special educational needs. We understand the difficulties experienced by dyslexic students and recognise the frustration parents may feel when their child’s full potential is not being realised.  We hold Assessment Practising Certificates from PATOSS enabling us to carry out full diagnostic assessments for dyslexia.  An assessment helps to identify a child’s learning strengths and weaknesses which we outline in a comprehensive report along with recommendations of how best to support your child at home and in school.  

 

Our friendly, supportive and consistent approach will help to unlock your child’s potential.  We are happy to discuss your child’s needs.  Please call us for a free informal consultation.  If you would like to visit us at the Yorkshire Dyslexia Centre in Leeds, please call or email to book an appointment.

 

We also offer assessments for adults and students in higher education.  Please click here for more information about these services.

 

What we do
  • Dyslexia diagnostic assessments (for children, students claiming DSA and adults)

  • Access Arrangements for SATs, GCSEs and A levels

  • Dyslexia training for schools and workplaces

 

We offer advice and strategies of intervention to help support individuals with dyslexia and believe a formal diagnosis of dyslexia can raise a person's self esteem and allow them to unlock their full potential.
