Question
How does the Welsh Government ensure that the signs of dyspraxia in children are recognised early in schools?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
Our education reforms aim to ensure children and young people have their needs met in a timely way. Early identification, intervention, and prevention is a key principle underpinning the Additional Learning Needs (ALN) system.
The ALN system is person-centred, and a medical diagnosis is not required to ensure support is provided to a learner when they need it. A range of Professional Learning and resources are available to education practitioners to support early identification, intervention, and prevention.
