Specific Learning Difficulties, such as Dyslexia, are precisely that. Individuals affected have an uneven assessment profile often with significant areas of strength as well as areas of relative weakness. In a school setting they represent the 'puzzling' children... they may express themselves clearly orally, but find it difficult to express themselves on paper; they may struggle with reading and spelling, or possibly only with spelling; they may have difficulty remembering instructions and maintaining focus in lessons. In some individuals arithmetic is affected as well.
