The second edition of this invaluable book will no doubt become one of the key texts for our Masters in SpLD (dyslexia) at UCL, IOE. This book provides an accessible, yet comprehensive look at issues surrounding assessment of learners with dyslexia. Essential reading for specialist teachers, SENCos and all educational professionals. Kelly and Philips use an evidence based approach which is grounded in theory.
What a wonderful and timely text! Each chapter of this book can be used to support and develop those who are learning the complex set of skills required to become outstanding practitioners in this field. No other text on the assessment of dyslexia achieves the delicate balance of how to use a variety of methods in the identification process. This new edition is even more relevant as it matches the most up-to-date forms of assessment with how these should be delivered within the current legal framework.
Phillips and Kelly have done it again with this superb second edition of their Assessing of Learners with Dyslexia-type difficulties. The first edition enjoyed tremendous success and I am sure this updated and comprehensive edition will be warmly welcomed by teachers, specialist teachers and other professionals involved in the area of assessment.
An excellent text book which serves as a comprehensive foundation for students studying for ATS/APS with the BDA.
