Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

I am grateful to the Minister for giving way. It is not always children who are making poor progress. For instance, my son had just won a scholarship when we were asked if we would have him tested. They thought that there was something the matter with his eyes. He was dyslexic, and he was 14 before we realised that whenever he read, the text moved around on the paper. I asked him why he was not reading and he said, "Because it makes all those awful patterns". I asked why he had not said anything before and he said, "Because I thought that happened when everybody read". It was important that he was diagnosed, because he was not doing as well as he was capable of doing. It is not always children who are doing poorly: that is why you need a general diagnostic test for everybody.
