Touch typing course for dyslexic children

Hello, does anyone have any recommendations for a touch typing course or classes locally for children? Not essential that it is specifically for dyslexic kids, but I know it is helpful for them to learn. Ages 9 and 11 yrs.

Re: Rutherford House School Balham

My two children are at Rutherford and have been there from the beginning. We are delighted with it - it’s a very inclusive, forward thinking, well run school.

Re: Rutherford House School Resignations

We believe that one of the teachers had some time off before Xmas due to personal reasons so I think her departure was entirely separate to the other teacher - honestly just bad timing. I think in the other teacher's case it may have been a bit too much pressure - it's a new school striving for exce...

Fozen party recommendation

Can anyone recommend a party entertainer (that doesn't cost the earth) for a 3 year old's birthday party? She is desperate for Elsa from Frozen, or a Frozen themed party.
If anyone had used one recently please can you help! Thanks.

Re: Tantrums - any book recommendations?!

I have the same problem with my nearly 5 yr old son. Hideous possessed tantrums over the smallest things. Followed usually by sobbing and clinging to me -it's so distressing. I have been doing research in past 2 weeks and I've come to realise he's just a very emotionally sensitive child (feels extre...
