Dyspraxia

What is Dyspraxia?

The Dyspraxia Foundation definition states: “Dyspraxia is an impairment or immaturity of the organization of movement. Associated with this there may be problems of language, perception and thought”.

Indicators of dyspraxia overlap with some other specific learning difficulties, particularly dyslexia, autistic spectrum disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

About 5% of the UK population continue to have dyspraxic difficulties in adulthood.
