Things are on track and we know that we need to be patient. It has been a huge relief getting some understanding of what the underlying issues are – when school has been hopeless at helping! Flora is engaged with the lessons and enjoys them. The system of code words and prizes is a useful support – and the guidance and encouragement for parents is excellent.
We are all committed to the course- Flora and parents – and have manged to find ways to fit in 4 to 5 sessions per week without too much trauma. Looking forward to getting teh next 6 weeks under ouir belts and starting to see the glimmers we are already seeing turn into a meaningful shift. Crucially, Flora’s confidence in her reading is increasing, she hasn’t lost her love for books and the library and she is enjoying the course (as is her rapt little sister!)
