Dillon’s story

Family aspirations

Dillon was half way through Year 4 at a good prep school in London, with excellent 11 Plus results.  Dillon was bright but his written English was poor and his school had wondered if he had any additional learning needs. He saw and Educational Psychologist and was diagnosed with dyslexia. He needed a secondary school where he would be welcome to work on his laptop and a strong SEN team to support him. 

Academic diagnosis

Dillon was excellent at Reasoning and good at Maths.  His English scores were less good and his hand writing was slow and messy.

How we helped

Dillon attended our weekend school on Sunday morning in Dulwich and worked really hard on his English, to improve his spelling and grammar. We advised Dillon’s parents to work with their school to make sure Dillon could sit his 11 Plus exams on his laptop, rather than handwriting his exams. 

Dillon’s success

Dillon was able to take his 11 Plus exams on his laptop and this helped him enormously.  He was lucky enough to receive an offer of a place from his first choice school.

‘Thank you we are over the moon! Thanks most of all for making this whole dreadful process as pleasant as humanly possible for Dillon.  He loved his Sunday morning gang and has their phone numbers to keep in touch.’
