    Has anyone been assessed for dyslexia recently? Info/feedback on when, where, costs, procedures, outcome etc. appreciated. How long did the assessment take? Was anything granted as a result (e.g. examination concessions)?

    This is totally the wrong forum you know.

    Anyway, it's worth checking out the Dyslexia Association of Ireland (www.dyslexia.ie) who can give you the facts about exam concessions and stuff like that. This page here has details about how to get accessed, either through the Department of Education & Science, through a private educational psychologist or through the DAI itself. If you contact them then you should be able to give you all the details.

    If a child is at school in the vocational sector, some VECs have their own educational psychologists (I know the City of Dublin VEC has a large team serving only their schools) and they will get the child assessed with hardly any waiting time.
