Find Cardiff AssessorsCardiff families need dyslexia and SpLD reports that make sense within Welsh ALN and IDP planning as well as university, DSA, exam access and workplace routes.

It should explain the learner's reading, spelling, writing, phonological processing, working memory, processing speed and wider learning profile, then turn that into practical recommendations for home, school, study or work.
For Cardiff, check how the report will work alongside Cardiff and Welsh ALN information, school ALNCo/IDP planning and South Wales college, university or workplace support routes. If the assessment is for a specific purpose, ask the receiving school, university, employer or exam centre what evidence they need before you pay.
