Learning Support Service for Schools (Traded)

Dudley Learning Support Service (LSS) is a traded service working in partnership with Dudley schools and other educational settings to raise the standards of achievement for pupils with Special Educational Needs (SEN), particularly in the areas of learning difficulties (literacy and numeracy) and specific learning difficulties / Dyslexia.

Dudley LSS comprises of a team of highly experienced teachers all with additional post-graduate Specialist SEN qualifications.
The vast majority of the work purchased by schools is in the form of detailed 1:1 assessments of an individual pupil's Literacy and/or Numeracy skills and then advice and support as to how this pupil's SEN could best be met in school through suggested targeted outcomes and provision. Pupils assessed by Dudley LSS will be identified by their school SENCo as requiring additional SEN support.

Dudley LLS is a traded service schools purchase support from us and therefore we do not take referrals directly from parents. Parents concerned about their child's learning needs should, in the first instance, discuss these with the school SENCO.
