Here at Hull, our Dyslexia Unit performs a lot of screening
tests for students who suspect they have Dyslexia. The
student pays £10 for this test. As a result of this
initial screening test, a full Dyslexia assessment is
recommended for some students. The cost of each full
assessment is currently being met by our Access Fund which
is very quickly running short of money.
Do any of you bill the LEA for the cost of the full
assessment if it is found that the student is found to be
Dyslexic? The costs of equipment assessments are covered
by a student's LEA, so surely dyslexia assessments should
be treated in the same way?
Any input on this would be gratefully received by my
colleague and I.
Thanks
Sarah
