Hello, my son is just finishing year 2 (7 years old) I suspect he has dyslexia and there is a family history of it. They did a LASS screening test at school and he has come out as not having a dyslexic profile. However his reading is excellent and above where it should be for his age, and that's what the test seems to predominately test along with spellings which the school have been working a lot on. Have you come across anyone who has not showed signs on the screening test but does have dyslexia?
I don't know whether the school will do any further testing because of this or how to handle it with them? Should I just be paying privately for the full assessment?
