Development and learning delay occurs to a certain extent in virtually all individuals affected by 22q DS. Although learning may be difficult for some, this does not mean that they can't learn specific skills / concepts, just that they may take longer to learn them.  Having home educated her 22q DS child for six years, Lindsey Stedman has developed various strategies and techniques which have helped him to largely keep on track with his peers.  In this section there is a pack for teachers, parents and carers outlining some common 22q DS learning issues and practical suggestions to address them.  There are separate pages giving links to resources and materials which may help your child / young person.  Remember that this is a spectrum condition, and interventions which may work for one child / young person may not have the same outcome with another.
