Testimonials
Parent
Year 9 PupilThanet Dyslexia Services have provided an exemplary service throughout the Dyslexia assessment. They explained the process and cost clearly in advance, and the face-to-face tests were extremely thorough, carried out with care and compassion for my child, who has communication challenges. There were plenty of breaks to ensure that it was not overwhelming. The report was very detailed and clearly explained the basis for the conclusions, with practical recommendations for the school to implement. All in all, a highly professional and excellent service; I would not hesitate to recommend Thanet Dyslexia Services to others.

Year 6 PupilFrom our first conversation with Jennifer, I felt reassured that she really understood our son and his needs. The assessment was carried out in familiar, comfortable surroundings, and he was immediately put at ease, which made the whole experience really positive. The report was incredibly useful, giving us a much better understanding of how he learns, along with clear, practical recommendations that we could use both at home and at school. The service was supportive, personal, and professional, and I genuinely feel the assessment helped open up our son's world.
