Alpha Training - Our aims

  • All learners will make satisfactory or better progress towards their individual targets.

Alpha Training - Aspects of practice

At Alpha Training we strive to:

  • Create an ethos of achievement and a climate of high expectation.
  • Value a broad range of talents, abilities and achievements.
  • Promote success and self-esteem.
  • Remove barriers to learning.
  • Combat discrimination.
  • Promote understanding and appreciation of diversity.

Identification, assessment and monitoring

A key attribute of a Dyslexia Friendly Centre is the willingness to respond quickly to perceived needs without waiting for a formal assessment. This inclusive, dyslexia friendly response comes from class teachers who are empowered to identify learning issues and respond appropriately as part of their day to day teaching. There are clear referral procedures for identification, assessment and monitoring through a ‘staged approach’.

Response to need

  • class, group and individual learning;
  • recognition and use of different learning styles;
  • flexible teaching;
  • differentiation of the ways in which pupils may record information;
  • differentiated assessments;
  • individual target marking to highlight selected key elements;
  • out of class opportunities for small group or 1:1 support.
