The Problem of the Increasing Number of Children with Diagnosed Developmental Dyslexia in Poland

The problem of children/youth with learning process disorders has been noticed in Poland. There is a system of the simplification of external competence evaluation for each of the education levels – primary school, junior high, and high school. It is obligatory and the results influence later education choices. We witness a very disturbing phenomenon of the growing number of children with reading and writing disorders. These are basic competences with a key role in not only completing the obligatory learning stage but also functioning properly within the world of information, the world of competition and open European job market. With such dynamic factors some system activities are necessary along with temporary remedial ones.
