The judges said: This programme is an intuitive and engaging resource aimed at analysing the specific learning needs of dyslexic children. It is immediately obvious what the programmes objectives are through the multi-media explanation that plays when the programme is opened. This is an excellent pupil-friendly analytical tool, enabling pupils to self-diagnose and address specific learning needs. The comic book explanation of how it feels to be dyslexic is superb, making children realise that dyslexia is not their fault, nor related to their potential to do well in life after school.

Teachers using Nessy have been highly commended by school inspectors for the quality of their provision and planning.
In two pilot trials dyslexic children using this programme made on average two years academic progress per year in comparison to their non-dyslexic peers who did not use this programme. In one instance a child made 3.5 years academic progress in a year.
Nessy has proved extremely effective in addressing the needs of disaffected students and is so easy to use that teachers spend less time directing learning support assistants and parent assistants. The clear structure provides format, which saves time in IEP preparation.
The highly motivational game based learning has also proved a hit with EBD, EAL, Downs Syndrome, Asperger's and mainstream pupils.
Based on 40 years of research and practical teaching and developed for dyslexic children by specialists at the Bristol Dyslexia Centre, the Nessy Learning Programme combines a system of structured incremental phonics linked with language, writing skills and vocabulary development.
The clear, phonic based structure includes printable card games, activity sheets, mnemonics and computer games. Students can record their own words to play with the computer games, creating highly effective multi-sensory learning. The impressive graphics and game driven approach make learning fun and motivating. Successful trials have shown Nessy helps to rebuild self-confidence and improve literacy skills.
Nessy is an interactive, multi-media resource that enables students of all abilities and ages to read, write and spell with confidence, enthusiasm and enjoyment. Each of the 120 lessons follows a structured, phonic approach supported by printable card games, activity sheets, mnemonics and computer games, delivered in a simple and fun way.
