Dyscalculia and Dyslexia Screening

A Dyscalculia and Dyslexia screening provides an initial, structured evaluation to identify whether a child or young person’s profile is indicative of dyscalculia, dyslexia, or both. It is not a full diagnostic assessment, but rather a focused screening designed to highlight areas of concern and determine whether a comprehensive diagnostic assessment is warranted.

Our process

The screening uses recognised screening tools to assess key areas associated with dyscalculia and dyslexia — including number sense, mathematical reasoning, phonological awareness, reading fluency, and spelling. The process is efficient and supportive, designed to give a clear indication of whether further, more detailed assessment is recommended.

After the Assessment

Following the screening, families receive a summary report outlining the findings, including areas of strength and any indicators that suggest a full diagnostic assessment may be beneficial. Practical recommendations are provided for interim support, alongside clear guidance on next steps.

Working With Families and Professionals

“The team worked together seamlessly and we felt supported throughout. It never felt rushed or impersonal. The focus on our child’s strengths as well as their needs was reassuring, and the outcomes have been genuinely helpful in moving forward.”

“The assessment and report from Live to Learn were exceptionally clear and practical. The recommendations were specific, realistic, and easy to translate into provision within school. Having the educational context so carefully considered made a real difference.”

“From the very beginning, the process felt thoughtful and well coordinated. The assessment was thorough, but what stood out most was how clearly everything was explained. The report gave us real clarity and helped us understand not just the diagnosis, but what support would actually help our child in school and day-to-day life.”
