About Code Read Dyslexia Network Australia

Vision: For all people with dyslexia to be understood, acknowledged, empowered and to have equal access to opportunity. Mission: We will raise awareness about dyslexia. We will support and empower those with dyslexia and their families. We will work with government and other decision-makers to improve the education system, workplaces and everyday experience of those with dyslexia. Who we are: We are Australians who are aware that children with dyslexia are being unnecessarily damaged by the education system, as their needs are not being recognised and given the assistance they require. We are not prepared to let the current situation continue when the best practice approaches are already available. We include volunteer parents, carers, educators, health professionals and people with dyslexia. Who have all been impacted by dyslexia. We support people with dyslexia and their families and we seek to disrupt the current situation. What we want: Early screening and identification of literacy difficulties including phonemic awareness screening in Preschool and Kindergarten and a phonics check in Year One. Educators that are knowledgeable about dyslexia and how to identify it. Educators using current evidence-based teaching practices. Effective evidence-based literacy instruction (systematic explicit phonics) in schools and high expectation for all students. Schools and teachers to be dyslexia aware and give all students equitable access to the curriculum. Dyslexia to be de-stigmatised in the community. Action to alleviate the potentially devastating outcome of undiagnosed or unsupported dyslexia
