The book shows how challenges can extend into every aspect of school life, from learning to write and use scissors to managing self-care tasks, joining in playground games and forming friendships.

Chapters cover:

• early identification and support to help learners thrive from the start
• recognition of strengths often overlooked in traditional classroom settings
• strategies for developing handwriting, fine motor skills and self-care tasks such as managing belongings and using cutlery
• guidance on technology use and sensory processing to create inclusive learning environments and
• collaboration with parents to support dyspraxic learners’ progress

Whether helping a child to manage their coat and shoes, develop legible handwriting or prepare for secondary school, All About Dyspraxia offers clear, actionable guidance to empower all primary teachers, special educational needs coordinators and parents seeking to better understand and support children with dyspraxia.
