Dress Down Day for Dyslexia

Dyslexia awareness week in Scotland runs from the 29th September until the 6th October. Dyslexia and different learning styles will be explored during our assemblies over the next couple of weeks and we will take part in this in a number of ways. We will hear from our DFS (dyslexia friendly schools) community group during our whole school assembly, we will then participate in different activities during our stage assemblies. Then, on Friday 10th October, as well as a dress down day, we will have a no pens day. This means that all learning will take place in different ways throughout the day but no pens or pencils will be allowed… outdoor learning, digital technology and active learning will take place to celebrate all learning styles.
