Hello. I am looking for advice on non-selective schools in T/Wells and Tonbridge, particularly Hillview and Skinners Kent Academy and what support they have for dyslexic children.

Thanks

Hi, my two children have attended Skinners Kent Academy which is a rapidly improving school. My daughter then went to 6th form in TGs which is one of the super-selective grammars. We have also looked at Hillview. SKA has a good level of support for the many children it takes who have any of the range of learning difficulties and I would think that Hillview does too. However Hillview is a specialist performing arts school, so if your child is that way inclined then it might be a good choice. Otherwise in terms of education and teaching, personally I would lean towards SKA
Good luck with your choice!
