Helpline, support, training and workshops for parents/carers and schools GIVING THESE CHILDREN A VOICE...
Dyspraxia, also called Developmental Co-ordination Disorder is a complex “hidden” condition which impacts a child’s whole life from learning, playing, sleeping, socialising and the difficulties usually continue into adult life. Despite being incredibly common with between 1-3 children in every class affected most of these children are missed. Without training it’s difficult for teachers and other key professionals to identify when a child is affected and know what to do. Consequently many of these children go unsupported and suffer in silence. Both parents/carers and teachers often feel at a loss as to how to help and support these children and young people. Dyspraxia Education is a charity which cares passionately about giving these children a voice, getting them the understanding and recognition they deserve. Experience has taught us the best way to do that is by training and supporting the key adults in their lives by offering:
1)Helplines for parents/carers, teachers, and professionals
2) Face to face support for both families and schools ( depending on location)
3) Online workshops for parents/carers
4) Training for schools, online or Inset training.
5) Public speaking
