Awarded the Teach Secondary Award 2024 for SEND resources, this updated, straightforward, and accessible guide is ideal for teachers, teaching assistants, SENCOs, senior management, and homeschooling parents who wish to learn more about supporting students with Diverse Learning Abilities.

Expert Diana Hudson succinctly outlines the points related to certain common Specific Learning Differences (SpLD), such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, OCD, with new sections also included on Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), and tics and Tourette syndrome.

This guide covers all the essential information and reminds us that all neurodiverse children are individuals with different characteristics. Diana provides a concise presentation of each identity and evaluates how you may need to adjust your classroom support levels, as well as practical suggestions for modifying your teaching approach and materials, to make learning enjoyable, effective, and accessible for all students. There are also special chapters available to support students with SpLDs in improving their organization skills and developing effective revision skills and examination techniques.
