An inspirational woman who was unable to read or write at 16 has earned a first-class honours university degree. Chloe McRoberts, who left school with no qualifications, is now using her experience to encourage others.
The 26-year-old, from Ayr, struggled in primary school and was eventually diagnosed with dyslexia and attention deficit disorder. She lost her dad to cancer when she was just eight and had one-to-one care at primary school as she was considered a flight or suicide risk.
Before she started secondary school she had an eating disorder and on her first day there she ran away. Mum Rosina, 54, was so concerned she quit her job to homeschool her daughter.
