While dyspraxia can be quite different in every case, it presents a different set of challenges throughout the journey of a student’s academic life. Our tailored Dyspraxia Academic Support at Specialist Education helps students break down those barriers to feel confident in their studies.
Dyspraxia, or DCD, is a neurological disorder that makes it difficult to coordinate movements. This may lead to problems not only with physical movements but also with many of the organisational issues common in most other learning difficulties. For students, this may be most apparent in trying to take notes, manage timescales, or undertake assignments. Support for dyspraxia includes tailored strategies and resources to enable students to achieve their full academic potential.
At Specialist Education, we offer a range of bespoke services for students with dyspraxia. Our approach focuses on the specific needs of the student, which ensures that each child receives just the right amount of help to meet their challenges.
