I agree with Jackie.  There is more to this "dismissal" than what the company has told you.  I think you should get some legal help over this.  Dyslexia is NOT a reason either not to employ someone or to dismiss them.

Two of my previous bosses had dyslexia, and were respectively director and chairman of my employing companies, and therefore hardly "stupid" and most certainly NOT in dead-end jobs.

You may be need to take some time to think about how you can progress this matter, and perhaps accommodate your dyslexia into your working life.  

I know it is different, but I offer this only as an example: one of my friends has severe rheumatoid arthritis and finds it very hard to type - disastrous for an admin!  Her employers have been very supportive and she now uses ViaVoice, which has made such a difference to her work.

With very best wishes,

Raindance
