Courses for Second Level
A Message from Wyn McCormack
In 2025 retirement finally beckons. The only courses I am offering are whole school in-service. This is up until September 2025. It has been a key objective for me to provide training for mainstream second level teachers. With dyslexia affecting one in ten, there are many thousands of students with dyslexia at second level. Many do not meet the criteria for additional teaching support and other supports. They are relying on the mainstream subject teacher to understand their difficulties and provide help.
From January 2025 I am not providing parents' webinars or webinars through the Education Centres. I am not updating the Factsheets.
However I want to share the many resources and strategies I have collected so I have published 9 YouTube Webinars under the heading Dyslexia at second level. The link is
