The book explores a range of key areas, including timekeeping, homework, behaviour and evidence-based supports, and focuses on adaptations that can be made in every classroom. Drawing upon the voices of dyspraxic young people and adults, it unpicks myths and misconceptions before providing a wealth of evidence-based strategies to support independence, confidence and behaviour in the classroom. Chapters cover:
Support with secondary transition to adapt to new routines and ease anxiety.
Organisational skills to manage belongings and complete homework.
Targeted strategies to support writing, fine motor skills, and physical tasks.
Exam preparation and technology use to empower learners.
Sensory processing adaptations and suggestions to foster positive mental health.
Whether you're supporting a new learner through transition into secondary school, helping a final year learner manage coursework, or simply want to make your classroom more accessible, All About Dyspraxia provides clear, actionable guidance to empower all secondary teachers, SENCOs and parents seeking to increase their knowledge and understanding of dyspraxia.
Kim Griffin is a paediatric occupational therapist with over 20 years of experience supporting children, their families and teachers. She is the founder of GriffinOT, and the author of Success with Sensory Supports (JKP). Her current research focus is supporting student self-regulation in mainstream schools.
