Why this application? At the seven branches of Calvijn College for Secondary Education in Zeeland (NL) group 8 pupils with dyslexia report annually from the supplying primary schools, especially from some Zeeland families in which there is a relatively high incidence of dyslexia problems. Because a large number of pupils with a form of reading support/dyslexia problems have been identified, with a mix of writing and reading problems in various gradations of dyslexia level: including severely dyslexic pupils (EED). These dyslexic pupils are eligible for technological innovation through state-of-the-art software support due to their disability. For the needs of these pupils with dyslexia, we have introduced transnational, innovative ICT technology in the lower and upper school to facilitate a continuous learning line for dyslexia. Also, with the know-how of all our KA210 partners in professionalisation courses in Belgium, we prepared the (technical) infrastructure for a further continuous PO/VO/HO learning line dyslexia. We have developed with our software partner an innovative SSO/favourite folder, linking tools, DPIA proof. In this application, the needs of various TARGET GROUPS have been met through the following OBJECTIVES.
