\"\"<\/a>Is Your Daughter Twice Exceptional?<\/h4>\n

\u201cTwice exceptional\u201d is a term used to describe students who are academically gifted with another diagnosis. The second diagnosis may prevent their ability and as such underachievement may occur.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second diagnosis could be ADHD, ASD, vision\/ hearing impairment, dyslexia, dysgrafia plus a whole range of other disorders or challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recognising our twice exceptional students is essential and providing support in their learning and assessments is critical if these students are to succeed at school.<\/span><\/p>\n

Twice exceptionality requires specialised identification from health professionals such as psychologists and paediatricians. These health professionals then work with us to guide teachers on how to best support the student and provide an understanding of how their brain works.<\/span><\/p>\n

I highly recommend you read the following article and, if you have a child who has ADHD, then subscribe to this site and enrol for the excellent Zoom sessions for parents to assist with supporting your child.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you require information please contact me. We can advise you on the steps in assessing different disorders.<\/span><\/p>\n
