I posted in SN but wondered if I'd get more response here.
My Y7 dd has an EHCP. I received an email last week from the SENCO saying that she was due to begin a literacy intervention group this term. As she is now not at school (by choice. A place is available to her) they have signed her up to the Lexia literacy program to do at home. Has anyone used this and have any feedback? She currently has a full school timetable to live lessons, so will need to do the extra literacy work in her free time. She did the bench marking section of it yesterday and it took over an hour. The program recommends about 2 hours work over the week, which, for a child who struggles with motivation and concentration anyway due to ADHD, is a huge ask. Does anyone have any experience of Lexia and (and any suggestions on how to convince a highly unmotivated 11 year old to do this regularly, when there is no class teacher chasing it up!).
