Ms Rosie Bissett:

There are. We are a member of the EDA, the European Dyslexia Association. It did a survey with our member organisations a year ago. One of the questions was on exam accommodations. The average across Europe was 25% extra time in State exams, such as our junior certificate and leaving certificate. There is variation among countries. In some it is ten minutes per hour, in some it is 33% extra time, which would be 20 minutes. In some cases it can even be up to 50% extra time.
