My daughter is dyslexic and has undiagnosed dyscalculia.
Her teacher is concerned about her hearing and suggested she gets her hearing checked…now I always knew that she was a bit different with her 'not listening', but people just kept telling me this is normal kids behaviour etc…Once, when she was at Nursery or Reception (don't remember properly) I wanted to do a full hearing check but the GP refused to make a referral. Now she is 7 in Y3 and we just been today to the GP and she will make a referral, however I suspect there is nothing wrong with her hearing but it is a case of Auditory Processing Disorder…
Where do I get her diagnosed for it (if the hearing test goes well) and how to get support for her?
Anyone here with children in the same boat?
TIA
