Critics Review

Life After School is a brilliant idea for a book, which will help young people to remember that if they are struggling in school there is a positive life beyond that. The personal stories and accounts are well worth reading. – Alais Winton, author of Diary of a Dyslexic School KidLife After School is an inspiring and empowering read.

As a careers adviser, I’ll be recommending it to the students I support. – Marcia Brissett-Bailey, Author, speaker, Careers Adviser in SEND, Dyslexia AdvocateShining a much-needed spotlight on some amazing dyslexic voices – Jamie Oliver, Chef & Author
