When my granddaughter was at school she got ''special'' classes for maths, like, just give her more until she finally ''gets it''. No, you don't get it, that's the whole problem, you need strategies to get around the problem, make it work for you. My daughter finally took her out of school and home schooled her like she was...all my kids were homeschooled.

Dyslexics were missed because they learned how to disguise the problem...they are very good at it. Dyscalculia is hard to pickup because they read and write well, and maths isn't a communication skill. I could drop maths in the 4th form - oh, bliss !

  Me too - high school maths teacher eventually gave up so I used to sit in maths & doodle all over my maths book, & of course back then no one had heard of it.

The weird thing is though that I'm brilliant at budgeting. None of my kids have it but the youngest had what they called specific learning difficulty; sent him to SPELD fpr a few months ehich helped.

I do wish our education system was a bit quicker off the mark with things like these.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
