Today is World Dyslexia Day.

EDA's vision is simple: every child and adult with dyslexia has the right to access and receive appropriate support and opportunity to achieve their full potential in education, training, employment and life.

The research on what works is clear. What's needed now is change in policy, in classrooms and in workplaces.

According to ONS data, around 2.4 million adults across England alone either cannot read or struggle significantly with reading.

This Dyslexia Awareness Week we’re sharing Stephie Bradshaw’s story.

Stephie has dyslexia and only learned to read fluently when she was 33, supported by charity Read Easy UK.

Now she shares her story to help other adults who struggle to read feel less alone.

Let’s remove the stigma around seeking support to read as an adult.

📚 How can morphology help primary-age children become more confident readers and spellers?

As part of Dyslexia Awareness Week 2026, Alison Earey explores how teaching children to understand the meaningful building blocks of words can support literacy development.

Drawing on her experience as an SpLD specialist teacher, Alison shares how a structured morphological approach helped learners recognise patterns, understand how words are formed, and apply this knowledge to both reading and spelling.

An insightful read for teachers, parents and anyone supporting young learners.
