Understand your learning profile and get the support you need
A full diagnostic dyslexia assessment for adults is available for those who want clarity about ongoing difficulties with reading, spelling, writing, memory or processing information.
This assessment does not just identify dyslexia where present — it explains how you learn, why certain tasks feel harder, and what can actually help in practice.
Why have a dyslexia assessment?
Many adults seek assessment after years of:
Struggling with reading speed or accuracy
Difficulty with spelling or written work
Problems retaining information
Fatigue or anxiety around reading and writing tasks
Feeling they work harder than others for the same results
A diagnostic assessment provides clear answers and direction, replacing uncertainty with understanding.
What the assessment covers
The assessment is a detailed evaluation of cognitive and literacy skills, including exploration of aspects such as language, memory, phonological processing, reading, spelling and writing. Maths and reasoning skills may also be assessed where difficulties are reported.
The assessment is designed to be calm, respectful, and non-judgemental.Most adults find the process reassuring and clarifying rather than stressful.
What you gain from the assessment
A diagnostic assessment is valuable because it provides practical, usable insight — not just a label.

A detailed explanation of your learning profile
Insight into your strengths and areas of difficulty

Access arrangements for exams and professional qualifications
