Children with dyslexia or other SpLD’s can experience mental health difficulties. They can become frustrated and develop anxiety or poor self-esteem.

"I still hear the voices of many teachers telling me what I could and couldn’t achieve but I hear my mums voice the loudest, my parents showed me I could be good at other things, and they helped me find them."

The right support network can make all the difference.

Some fantastic exam season advice from Caudwell Children

Is your child feeling the pressures of exam season? 📝

Many children during this period can struggle with exam stress, routines and expectations.

Over 15% of students in the UK are "highly anxious" about exams.

As a parent, you want your child to be relaxed and do their best, but we know that this can be difficult 💜

So wonderful to see the undeniable link between Dyslexia and mental health and well-being being openly explored.

"This has been 3 years in the making now. I've had to look at my own and others dyslexia needs closely and hold up the mirror to the mental health implications of dyslexia. It's been a journey." We're proud to be working with dyslexic film maker Trevor to deliver DyslexiFest 2022 online and share exclusive previews of his latest documentary examining dyslexia and mental health. http://ow.ly/aOyc50HPqy0

It’s so important for parents and educators take notice of the impact learning disabilities like Dyskexia have on mental health, well being and self esteem. Meeting the needs of these learners is not just about improving reading.

Children and young people who have dyslexia or other related learning differences, can experience mental health difficulties. Through struggling and working hard to keep up with their peers they can become frustrated and develop anxiety and poor self-esteem.

Does your child’s dyslexia affect their mental health, share with us in the comments below.
