Learning difficulties
It can be difficult to navigate where you should begin to seek assistance and support for a child with learning difficulties or who may be struggling with literacy and/or numeracy. There are many options available.
Helpful resource
View our decision chart to learn where to start if your child is having difficulty with learning.
Another great place to start is to take a look at the resource ‘Understanding Learning Difficulties – A Practical Guide for Parents.‘
This easy to read, comprehensive guide is designed to provide parents and carers with current information about the nature of learning disabilities in children, and to offer practical guidance on the most appropriate identification, intervention and support.
