Dyspraxia, or Developmental Co-ordination Disorder (DCD) is a condition affecting movement and co-ordination. Weaknesses in organisation and ¡®clumsiness¡¯ may be apparent, affecting practical activities and organising information into a structured format may prove difficult. Neurodiversity, being the intrinsic cause of all Specific Learning Differences (SpLDs), means that the conditions are varied and each person with an SpLD has a unique profile. However, there is some generic support that may be beneficial for all students.

Examples of student attributes

• Determination
• Motivation
• Strategic thinking

Examples of student challenges

• Processing information quickly.
• Organisational difficulties.
• Motor co-ordination difficulties.
• Structuring written work.
• Social interaction.
