Help your secondary school students thrive and reach their full potential with these three innovative IDL products, each designed to boost their learning, engagement and overall wellbeing in the classroom and beyond.

IDL Literacy

Supporting literacy development is paramount for all secondary school pupils, especially those with dyslexia and other special education needs. Strong literacy skills are foundational for academic success, personal growth and future career opportunities. However, pupils with learning differences often face significant challenges in reading, writing and spelling.

Dyslexia software for schools is crucial to ensure all pupils have the opportunity to develop strong literacy skills. IDL Literacy intervention software offers a valuable solution for teachers by providing a multi-sensory approach to literacy instruction.

This speaking-computer based system supports learners with dyslexia and other learning difficulties in improving their reading and spelling skills. The software can be utilised as a targeted literacy intervention for those with specific needs or as a school-wide literacy solution to enhance the learning experience for all. By incorporating IDL Literacy into their teaching practices, teachers can provide personalised support, foster a love of learning and empower pupils with the literacy skills they need to succeed.

 

IDL Numeracy

For secondary school pupils, especially those with dyscalculia and other special education needs, poor numeracy skills can undermine their confidence and hinder their overall academic progress severely. Strong numeracy skills are essential for success in various school subjects, everyday life, and future career paths. However, students with learning difficulties in mathematics often face significant challenges in understanding and applying mathematical concepts.

IDL Numeracy offers a valuable resource for teachers to support the numeracy development of all students, including those with dyscalculia. This engaging maths intervention software features a graded curriculum aligned with the National Curriculum, making it accessible to learners at different levels. Importantly, IDL Numeracy is designed to reduce the anxiety that students with dyscalculia often experience when faced with mathematical problems. By providing a consistent and supportive learning environment, the software helps build confidence and encourages independent problem-solving. Through the use of IDL Numeracy, teachers can address the diverse learning needs of their pupils and provide better dyscalculia support in schools.

IDL Wellbeing

Secondary school represents a crucial period in a young person’s life, where prioritising mental health is not only essential for their immediate academic success and social-emotional development, but also for their long-term well-being. During this period of significant transition and challenges, mental health issues like anxiety and depression can impact childrenโ€™s ability to learn, form healthy relationships and navigate life’s obstacles.

IDL Wellbeing, developed in collaboration with a psychologist, is a valuable tool for teachers in supporting their learners’ mental health. By integrating mindfulness practices and contemporary theories into a whole-school approach, IDL Wellbeing empowers learners to understand and manage their emotions effectively. This focus on emotional literacy and resilience aligns with research demonstrating a strong link between these skills and improved mental health outcomes. By equipping teachers with the resources and strategies provided by IDL Wellbeing, schools can create a more supportive and nurturing environment for all learners.

53% of young people in the UK feel anxious about their future on a daily basis.

Today is Youth Mental Health Awareness Day, and we're celebrating the determination, creativity, and resilience of young people. This year's theme, #BuildFutureYou, is all about helping young people build for the future, one step at a time.

At IDL, we understand that academic progress and emotional wellbeing are closely connected. Frustration, embarrassment, and setbacks can chip away at confidence, making learners less eager to participate and engage at school. ๐Ÿ“š

We're supporting youth mental health by providing numeracy, literacy, and wellbeing support, helping to create positive learning experiences that contribute to improved confidence and emotional wellbeing. ๐Ÿ˜Š
