Clarity Path Dyslexia is an independent specialist dyslexia assessment service based in Garston, South Liverpool. I provide in-person diagnostic assessments for children aged 8–16 in Liverpool and the surrounding areas, including assessments in schools by arrangement. Online dyslexia assessments are also available for children and young people across the UK, generally aged 10–16, where remote assessment is appropriate.

All assessments are carried out by me, Sarah Lally, a Level 7 qualified specialist dyslexia assessor, experienced teacher and practising SENCo who holds a current Assessment Practising Certificate (APC).

What Will an Assessment Tell Us?

A diagnostic dyslexia assessment looks beyond whether a child is simply finding reading or spelling difficult. It helps to build a detailed picture of how your child learns, why particular areas may be more challenging and what support may help.

Following the assessment, you will receive a comprehensive report explaining the findings, whether the evidence supports identification of dyslexia, and practical, individualised recommendations for school and home..

Your child's assessment includes:

✓ Background information from parents and school

What Parents and Schools Say

Families and schools often come to Clarity Path Dyslexia looking for a clearer understanding of a child's difficulties and practical guidance about what to do next.

'Iam very pleased with the service we received from clarity path dylexia. In the lead up to the assessment Sarah was engaged and responsive taking time to gather ample information about my daughter so she had a good profile pre assessment. When I wasn’t sure if we were going to proceed / if the assessment is what we required, Sarah was understanding and provided some other valuable options/ recommendations. We did end up proceeding with an assessment and I am very happy we did. Sarah was very professional and put my daughter at ease immediately. She was comfortable and confident to work with Sarah for over three hours. Sarah was able to recognise when my daughter was ready for breaks. The report we have received is very comprehensive and detailed. The recommendations and advice about moving forward are brilliant and school have also commented that there are some strategies they can put in place immediately. I would recommend clarity path dylexia without hesitation. Thank you Sarah!' Mum of 9 year old girl assessed
