International Dyslexia Learning (IDL)

Empowering students to accelerate their literacy and numeracy skills

There is a growing number of young learners who face learning difficulties, like dyslexia and dyscalculia, and are falling behind in their academics. International Dyslexia Learning (IDL) offers specialised multi-sensory software to primary and secondary schools in the UK. IDL’s literacy and numeracy programmes are a proven solution for improving the reading, spelling, and numeracy abilities of students.

Literacy, numeracy, and wellbeing support.

Accelerating literacy

IDL Literacy Software has been shown to enhance reading and spelling ages in both primary and secondary school students by an average of 11 months after just 26 hours of use. In addition to addressing the reading process from phonological awareness to fluency, the software offers features that help with spelling, handwriting, vocabulary, and comprehension.

Dyscalculia learning support

IDL Numeracy is an interactive mathematics resource aimed at helping young people improve their numeracy skills. The software is mostly used by pupils with dyscalculia, while it is not limited to individuals with special educational needs. It can also be utilised for teacher training and planning, as well as by school psychologists and educational experts.

Early identification, early intervention

The IDL Literacy and Numeracy Screeners are simple, yet efficient online tests for identifying dyslexic-type challenges and dyscalculic tendencies respectively. Early identification can lead to early intervention, which can be extremely effective in ensuring that children can overcome learning challenges and reach their full potential.

Nurturing wellbeing

IDL Wellbeing is an exciting product designed to integrate with a whole-school approach to mental health, toughness and behaviour management. Following 2 years of development alongside a psychologist, IDL Wellbeing has been developed using contemporary theories and mindfulness practices. IDL Wellbeing adopts an integrated approach to support children, aged 7 -13, to understand and address unwelcome emotions as well as encourage positive ones.
