Below is a list of “Educational Codes” used by school psychologists when identifying a student’s specific learning disability(ies), such as dyslexia.
Like the DSM-5 code system, school psychologists are supposed to “code” a students’ learning disability and/or disabilities, using the code(s) listed below. In doing so, reading/dyslexia specialists, teachers and parents can then tailor student support to their needs. This is an important list. If IEP’s or 504’s are not identifying these educational codes, ask why.
