    Seriously can I justify paying close to £600 for a dyslexia assessment 🥴

    You get them free when you get to uni. You can ask for one and they do it and then offer you extra support
    I kinda wanted to get one sorted ready for when student finance opens next year so I have everything in place to make the transition to a new setting easier

    I thought they was free. I mean can you put a price on something that could poitentally help you. Sometimes the money is nothing in comparison
    Nope @shaunie and @independent_ college and high school both refused to do it even though there’s strong indicators I have it

    @Kasa2103 when you quote someone and someone else is tagged in the message it rages them again. 

    @Millie2787 it seems so hard to get assessed for it. One of my friends was similar and eventually her college agreed to do it.

    @independent_ my high school was allowed to do 3 assessments a year but obvs that had to cover the whole year and I was never a priority

    What is wrong with commenting on here? It is a public area of the boards.

    Nobody is saying you can't comment here. I'm asking kindly if you can remove my name when you quote a text, if you are going to acknowledge the other person you are quoting. Please.
    I get notifications when you quote other people and my ping is still on the quote @Kasa2103

    @Millie2787 that’s ridiculous! It seems so expensive for you to get one yourself. I’ve no experience with that but that’s a ridiculous price.

    Kasa hunny it’s not to do with your settings x you know when you quote independent there often reply to more than one person , so if another person is still got there @ handle in that quote then it will give them a notification , when you quote if you click in the box and remove the @ of the person your not responding to then it won’t give them the notification hun x

    Shortlisted it down to 3 ideas. 

    Chose Sports Leadership for the possibility of being a gymnastics coach.
    Chose Health and Social Care for the possibility of working for the NHS.
    Chose Dance for the possibility of doing something in the Performing Arts.

    lol i choose sociology business and geography
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
