#175: Dyslexia, Technology, and Screening: Building a School-delivered Dyslexia Screener with Jamie Wace

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee speak with Jamie Wace, CEO and co-founder of Talamo, about his late dyslexia diagnosis and how it shaped his path to building an affordable school-based dyslexia screener. Jamie shares how exam access-arrangement testing led to his diagnosis at 15, the impact of working memory challenges, and how strategies like mind maps helped him succeed academically. He outlines Talamo’s mission to address the statistic that 80% of dyslexic pupils leave school undiagnosed, describing Talamo’s 45-minute, school-delivered screener, reporting for teachers and parents, and plans to expand into executive functioning, maths ability, and dyscalculia. They also discuss entrepreneurship, fundraising stories including Simon Squibb and Octopus Energy’s founder, and Talamo’s “We Love SENCo’s” conference at LSE.
