I've put this in primary education because I believe that VPD isn't classed as a learning disability so didn't want to use the SEN board inappropriately.
10 year old ds has Educational Psychologist assessment today. Obvs haven't received the full written report, but the preliminary analysis indicated some visual processing difficulties.
This makes complete sense to me, and is the reason that we paid for a private assessment. He has always 'done well' in school, although his confidence has declined over the years, and the difficulties that he has with concentration, anxiety, speed and quantity of written work in particular, have become more pronounced.
Does anyone else have a child with a VPD? When we receive the full report, I will meet with his class teacher and talk about adaptions etc and the ed psyche gave me a few ideas for home, but in the meantime I was wondering what strategies have helped other children?
TIA
