dyslexia screening test software for a primary school

[TwistedHelixis]

Hello,

 

I have just seen the software they use at my school to test for dyslexia and it's at least 14 years old and is useless. For example, after they hit print the file gets deleted so if the printer is faulty they then need to enter all the info in again.

 

Can anyone recommend a good dyslexia screening test software for a primary school please.

Lucid Rapid and Lucid Recall is what we use. It seems to be well repsected in the EdPsych community.

I can't comment on it's effectiveness/reliability, but the following was recommended to me a while ago, as a low cost option. Presumably the school is looking for indicators of dyslexia? Ultimately I presume the school (or parent as was the case for me) has to pay for a professional assessment to get a 'official' diagnosis?
