Description: The revised Dyslexia Screening Test now covers primary and secondary school-aged children in two separate assessments. The division of the DST into two tests, DST - Junior and DST - Secondary (DST-S), include extra subtests which are particularly relevant to the age group. The DST-S provides a profile of strengths and weaknesses which can be used to guide the development of in-school support for the child. The DST-S is designed to identify those children who are still experiencing difficulties at secondary school and provides data which can be used in support of requesting extra time concessions in exams.
