Our Mission

At 1 in 10 Dyslexia, our mission is to create a level playing field for every child in the UK. We believe in early diagnosis, timely intervention, and practical training that equips teachers to support dyslexic learners in real classrooms.

Dyslexia is a lifelong neurological difference that affects reading, writing, and spelling. It impacts 1 in 10 children in our schools, yet 80% leave without a formal diagnosis, missing out on the support they need.

We believe every child deserves to be recognised, understood, and given the opportunity to thrive.

Our

School Piolt

Our current pilot programme is focused on mainstream primary schools, where most children with dyslexia are taught.

Instead of waiting for specialists that never arrived after the 2009 recommendations, we are taking action. Our solution is Making the Invisible Visible a free, evidence-based training course that gives teachers and teaching assistants the tools to identify and support dyslexic learners.

It’s short, practical, and designed to fit into school life. Our ambition is clear:

This course in every UK state primary school.

Because when teachers are equipped, children with dyslexia thrive.

Our Goals

Train educators to deliver tailored support and mentor their peers

  1. Provide workshops for parents and teachers to build understanding and confidence

  2. Raise awareness and lobby government for national policy change

  3. Share case studies and cost-effective solutions that show inclusion works

  4. Improve outcomes not just in education, but across society β€” reducing the long-term costs of missed dyslexia

The stakes are high!

40% of self-made millionaires are dyslexic, 50% of the UK's prison inmates also share this condition, highlighting the long-term consequences of unmet needs.
