    Yeah, if you are on a student forum...speak to your place of education. They should do a quick test to see if it seems likely and if it does send you to get a proper one

    Anyone? Guidance teacher, English teacher, learning support, teacher you happen to speak to a bit more than others. Just ask them and they'll tell you how exactly it works in your school so you get a proper answer

    There should be a senco (special educational needs co-ordinator) at school. Speak to them.
