Supporting dyslexia in KS2 English
Choose a starting point that matters
Reading with understanding
Discuss the meaning of a short, suitable text. Where word reading is a priority, ask about the tutor’s relevant training and how support will align with school.
Ideas before the page
Talk through a story or rehearse a sentence before writing. Keep the child’s intended meaning central while choosing one writing skill to practise.
Feedback they can use
Notice a specific success and agree a manageable next step. Correcting every error at once may obscure what the child was trying to say.
Coordinate rather than start from scratch
Share relevant teacher feedback and strategies your child finds helpful. Discuss any changes with the school where appropriate, especially if your child already follows a structured reading programme.
Frequently asked questions
Does my child need a diagnosis to discuss support?
You can describe the difficulties and strengths you observe when contacting a tutor. Tutoring is not a diagnostic assessment; ask a suitably qualified professional about assessment if needed.
Will tuition focus only on spelling?
Not necessarily. Reading, comprehension, vocabulary, sentence construction and enjoyment of language may all matter. Agree priorities for your child.
How do I choose a tutor?
The tutors on this page report experience supporting this need. This does not imply a particular specialist qualification. Use a free 15-minute introduction to discuss your priorities, relevant experience and what a comfortable lesson would look like.
