Home Conductive Community Foundation for Conductive Education Discussion Forum Site Map School Services at the National Institute of Conductive Education Conductive education is the exciting new way to educate and develop children with cerebral palsy, enormously expanding their potential for greater independence. These specialist teachers work with the children to develop their movement skills, speech and communication, their intellectual abilities and their self-care and social skills. The daily routine combines movement sessions with academic lessons. Children develop their movement skills while lying, sitting and standing, and their fine movement skills, speech and language. Children are encouraged and motivated to use these skills to accomplish tasks during academic lessons and play.
All children have their own individual set of goals to work towards.
Most of the children currently attending the school services at the National Institute are supported by statements of special educational needs from their Local Education Authority. Information, advice and guidance are offered to all parents on the procedures for working with LEAs over statementing.
