520    "This book addresses the most common questions and 
       concerns of teenagers with dyslexia who are preparing for 
       further education or training. Targeted at 14-17 year olds,
       this engaging and informative guide empowers young people 
       to make informed decisions about the next stage of their 
       education, and helps them plan for a smooth transition to 
       college, university or the workplace. This book ensures 
       that teenagers with dyslexia are aware of their rights and
       entitlements and offers a short, accessible overview to 
       the support available, from special exam arrangements to 
       free e-textbooks and assistive technology. Readers are 
       encouraged to ask for support and to develop their own 
       strategies for independent learning, enabling them to 
       better engage with their education and reduce the anxiety 
       of taking this next step. This is a must-read pocket guide
       for teenagers with dyslexia, and will also be a helpful 
       resource for parents, teachers, SENCOs and career 
       advisors" --|cProvided by publisher.
