The majority of the remaining problems also witnessed a decrease in their figures. By contrast, the proportion of students struggling with their handwriting remained at 28% for both years, whereas the percentage for reading problems rose slightly, from 22% to 23%.
As for School B, with figures of around 15%, putting ideas into words and concentrating during lessons were the two most prevalent problems in both years. The proportion of students struggling with spelling and following instructions both doubled, from 5% to 10% and from 6% to 12% respectively.
