Does anyone have any experience of Lewisham and their unique approach
to DSA and Dyslexia.
I am representing a student with dyslexia, now in her second
year, that has been rejected for DSA twice by Lewisham. There is no
doubt that any other LEA would have allowed the application and this
view is supported by an Ed Psych report. I don't believe an appeal
to Lewisham will get anywhere and I do not see the point of wasting
any more time.
Is anyone aware of any earlier appeals to the DfEE regarding this LEA
and their prescriptive approach to DSA awards for dyslexia.
I would also appreciate details of where and how to make an appeal
to the DfEE.
