Learning to touch type has a huge range of benefits and removes a large number of barriers.  We know many students that have been able to use word processors in exams in order to demonstrate their potential. Over the years, Katie and the team have struggled to find a touch typing programme that was fun, interactive, and felt game like for the younger students using it. Therefore, they collaborated with some of the most specialist ICT programmers around to make a structured touch typing programme that not only focuses on Touch Typing, but it also cleverly develops a child's phonological awareness (usually a key difficulty within a dyslexic profile).  

The DASSSP is as unique as you and your fabulous young person and it is a timetable and access to a specialist planned programme of support in a range of areas depending upon ones needs. Students will get access to specialist programmes of support in Literacy, Maths, Number Sense, Memory, wellbeing, organisation, mental health, physical health, metacognition. The planned programme of support may include online learning programmes, Parent on demand training, live zoom parent training sessions, student multi-sensory workshops and full access to Super Powers Self-Esteem Club for our younger students. 

All our specialist Teacher resources and workbooks are downloadable for you to use at home with your child in our online shop. These are resources that are made by our specialist team and cover a range of key areas: sequencing, working memory, reading, spelling, maths and number sense.
