[Peter Cherry @peterjcherry]

Brilliant article outlining policy priorities on #dyscalculia by Baroness Bull. It is hard to over emphasise how important this is. If you read one thing today on #dyscalculiaday, let it be this

[The Dyscalculia Network @DyscalculiaNet1]

We are happy to share this article published today for #dyscalculiaday in Politics Home.

Baroness Bull is keen to raise not just awareness of #dyscalculia but also to advocate for change.

@allontheboard @DyscalculiaNet1 @robbiewilliams Thank you so much for raising awareness! It is so essential that dyscalculia is better known as it is just as widespread as dyslexia and has such far-reaching effects. And there is STILL no compulsory training for maths teachers in the UK unlike with dyslexia. Thank you!

[Peter Cherry @peterjcherry]

Today is #dyscalculiaday !

Life isn’t always easy as someone with dyscalculia and there is far too little awareness of it

Today @DyscalculiaNet1 launched resources for employers to support staff with dyscalculia. Proud to have been involved:
