Meet Joanna Grogan

Experience, understanding and genuine care

I’m Joanna Grogan, a qualified specialist dyslexia assessor and teacher. I hold a Level 7 PGCert in Specific Learning Difficulties (Dyslexia), AMBDA and a current Assessment Practising Certificate (APC).

With over 25 years’ experience in education, including many years as a SENCO and SEND leader, I understand that arranging an assessment can feel like a significant step. My approach is warm, thorough and neuroaffirming, helping every child or young person feel comfortable, understood and valued.

This extensive background ensures that every assessment and teaching plan is grounded in real-world understanding of how children learn best.

My Approach

“Every learner has their own story. An assessment should help families understand that story, recognise strengths and find clear, practical ways forward.”

Joanna Grogan, Specialist Dyslexia Assessor
