Robbie told The Mirror: 'I got nothing higher than a grade D, and everything else I failed or I didn't turn up for. I really want to go back and get them. 'All my life I've felt really stupid because we didn't know about dyslexia in the Seventies and Eighties in Stoke-on-Trent.

He continued: 'I've got dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, but we didn't have those then, so I left school thinking I was a dumb-dumb and it's taken ages to get over that'. Dyslexia is a common learning difficulty that can cause problems with reading, writing and spelling.
