    I know it's more than spelling and reading, she has pretty good social skills and is quite adaptable - she is very easy going. Her long term memory is incredible but her short term memory is shockingly bad!
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.

    Thanks everyone, will speak to her class teacher first and see if she can set us up with the learning support.
    She already sees LS for help with her spelling, one of the problems is her health was atrocious in P1-3 and she is just about on an even keel now though does still miss some school. This means she has missed a lot of the teaching at the start so the foundations are a bit rocky.
    My husband thinks all the issues she has with her learning are down to what she has missed but i'm not convinced, would rather check this out too just in case.

    In that case Toe By Toe would be good and it's something you can start immediately at home while waiting to get other things organised.
