We want the Government to fund all UK schools to screen children by age 7 for dyslexia, visual stress (Irlen Syndrome), and signs of neurodivergence such as autism or ADHD. We think early screening would allow for timely support and help close educational gaps caused by late diagnosis.

Neurodivergent children often go undiagnosed for years, which may lead to anxiety, underachievement, and social exclusion. Dyslexia and Irlen Syndrome also affect learning but are often not identified early. We think funding screening would promote inclusion, reduce long-term costs, and give all children equal opportunity to thrive in education.
