I don't think he actually has a learning problem so much as just doesn't have the brains for academic learning.
Not everyone who struggles at school does so because of a learning problem. Most do so because they struggle with academic learning due to lack of ability.
Many students with learning difficulties overcome them with the right assistance, as Beatrice received.
Learning difficulties are things that are stopping the learning taking place to match the person's innate ability whereas there are people who simply don't have the ability.
We have always been told that he struggles academically and I am sure if there was an identified learning difficulty we would have been told, like we were with Beatrice.
