Hello, Are there any Primary Teachers who have *Dyspraxia* ?

Hello, I am a practising trainee teacher who has Dyspraxia and would like to know if anybody has Dyspraxia and is a Primary school teacher. I would like to ask what strategies you use day-to-day as a teacher help you job run the best it can be?

Wow. My DD has dyspraxia and I can't even begin to imagine her being able to teach!

You may want to ask for this to be moved to The Staffroom board. It may help also if you say how dyspraxia impacts you (since as I am sure you are aware it shows differently in different people), and then the teachers can say what they do to help.

e.g.
organisation skills and planning/marking
teaching PE if uncoordinated
adapting to changing situations
messy handwriting but trying to teach neat cursive
getting on with other staff
