@SamsungUK That’s a shame, thanks for replying

[Lisa Walker @lisawalker86]

@SamsungUK I’m a teacher in a SEN class and one of my pupils loves your Samsung S9 and S10 phones. Please could you let me know if it’s possible to purchase a dummy phone?

The findings of a Delphi study into the definition of dyslexia have now been published in draft format. The study paper is still in review and we are monitoring its progress and will keep you updated. https://t.co/lBXBDPGDsF

Co-occurrence with other neurotypes is also typical and should be considered as part of comprehensive cognitive assessments to personalise education and health https://t.co/2QIEzXBXe2

@MissDSays I feel like education is regressing in so many ways. I hate the idea of a pen licence, I too have an 8 year old daughter who feels inadequate compared to her peers and has given up hope of having a pen licence.

This week our nursery children have learnt all about primary colours and then what happens when we mix them. They were all shocked when the play dough changed colour 😀
