St.Oliver Plunkett Reading School- Teaching dyslexic pupils
Dublin
About Us:Our mission is to help struggling readers - to gain confidence and to achieve their goals
We are one of 3 reading schools based in Dublin that specialises in teaching children with Dyslexia. We would like to update our school website to reflect the wonderful work of both our pupils and staff alike.
Our pupils primary difficulty is Dyslexia, all students have average or above average IQ and range from 8-12yrs of age. Our teaching methods are specalised, structured and multisensory, designed to teach reading ,writing and spelling by engaging all the senses: sight,sound,movement and touch, simuntaneously.
We would love if our school website ( which is currently the opposite of the above ) reflected this. As our students attend for 2yrs only, from Dublin to Wicklow, we do not have the normal parent body or support.
Therefore we would love to work with a Volunteer who has vision, colour, creativity to create/update our school website to reflect our wonderful succesful learners !!
