On Saturday, our team attended Dyslexia Scotland’s ‘Closing the Gap’ Conference in Glasgow. Spending the day surrounded by educators so committed to neuro-inclusive learning reminded us why this work is so vital.

It was brilliant to connect with so many teachers, specialists and advocates from across Scotland. Creating spaces where neurodivergent learners feel supported is an ongoing effort, and the conversations at our stall showed just how much great work is already happening.

Reflecting on the day, our Principal Teacher Graeme Donald (pictured above) shared:

“It was a great reminder of why getting it right for learners with dyslexia matters so much, and why continuing to learn, listen and share good practice is so important. As someone who is dyslexic myself, I also came away with a deeper understanding of my own learning journey and how I have developed my skills. I felt empowered by the day and motivated to keep learning, listening and making a difference wherever I can.”

A big thank you to Dyslexia Scotland for hosting the event, and to everyone who took the time to chat with our team, share their experiences and pick up our resources.
