Supporting Fair Access to Learning and Assessment

Learning Sponge provides professional psychometric assessments for dyslexia, helping children (9–18) and adults understand how they learn — and how to demonstrate their true abilities in education, training, and the workplace.

With over 30 years’ experience in education, Learning Sponge was created from a belief in equality in education. Every learner processes information differently, and when assessment environments are adjusted correctly, learning can thrive.

Assessments are carried out in your own home on the Isle of Wight, creating a calm, supportive environment that enables individuals to demonstrate their knowledge, skills, and abilities without unnecessary stress.

Each assessment results in a clear, easy-to-read report, including standardised scores and practical recommendations that are recognised by awarding bodies and examination regulators.
