LESSON 3 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE AND GOVERNANCE OF BASIC EDUCATION 33. A. Vision / Mission of the Department of Education The DECS Service Manual 2000 spells out the Vision and Mission of the Department, to wit: DECS is a complex learning organization that develops, promotes, provides, and ensures basic education responsive to the internal, external, and emerging learning needs. 34. Vision We are a people organization committed to a culture of excellence in public service. Believing that the most important resource of our country is its people, we make the task of educating the Filipino child our singular mission. We assist the Filipino child to discover his/her full potential in a child centered, 35. and value-driven teaching-learning environment and thereby, enable him/her to create his/her own destiny in the global community. We prepare him/her to become a responsible citizen and an enlightened leader who loves his/her country and is proud to be a Filipino. 36. We provide a school system Where teachers and principals achieve the desired learning outcome not only because they are empowered, competent, and accountable, but because they care; Where administrators exercise visionary leadership responsive to emerging learning needs of the nation; ensure adequate resources; promote appropriate technology; create and sustain a conducive climate to enhance learning; and 37. Where the family, the community, and other institutions actively support our efforts. We affirm the right of every Filipino child especially the less advantaged to benefit from such a system. This is our vision. With Gods help, we dedicate all our talents and energies to its realization. 38. Mission We provide quality basic education that is equitably accessible to all and lay the foundation for life-long learning and creative and rational thinking. Our ultimate aim is to develop Filipinos who are functionally literate, socially and morally responsible, and nationalistic yet receptive and contributory to positive global influences. 39. Mission These Filipinos become productive members of the society. Our target clientele are the Filipino children and adult illiterates including children with special needs and out-of-school youth. 40. LESSON 4 SCHOOL CULTURE 41. The school develops its own culture. Culture includes moral and aesthetic values; beliefs, customs, norms, and traditions practiced by people in an organization like the school. 42. As a teacher, you deal not only with learners, your superiors and peers, but also with parents and the community and other publics in the environment of the school. Certain beliefs may run counter to your own. 43. PART II Programs and Projects 44. FOREIGN-ASSISTED PROGRAMS/PROJECTS LESSON 1 45. In the Medium-Term Development Plan, 2004-2010 the targets in basic education are: providing an elementary school in every barangay; and expanding access particularly at the secondary level and for hard-to-reach population. The Department has programs and projects completed and ongoing to achieve these targets and improve the quality of education. Soft loans and grants from the World Bank (WB), Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Japan International 46. Cooperation Agency (JICA), Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID), and other funding institutions assist the DepEd programs. Efforts to improve basic education were supported by funding agencies as early as the 1950s. Grants from the governments of Canada, Australia, Japan, Germany and other donor countries support and complement foreign-assisted projects. 47. 1. ICA-NEC Assistance Project 1956-1961 ( International Cooperation Administration-National Economic .) 48. As early as 1956, an experimental-demonstrational project for rural community high schools under the International Cooperation Administration and the National Economic Council (ICA-NEC) was implemented by the Bureau of Public Schools. It was a comprehensive five-year program to improve secondary education in the Philippines in two phases: first, strengthening the practical arts courses and second, setting up experimental and demonstrational community high schools. 49. 2.PRODED 1983-1989 (Program for Decentralized Educational Development) 50. In 1983, the Program for Decentralized Educational Development (PRODED) assisted by World Bank, was implemented. The sectoral program aimed to reduce disparities in elementary education among and within the regions; raise the overall quality and efficiency of elementary education; and improve the management capabilities of the system, especially at the regional and subregional levels. 51. 3. Secondary Education Development Project (SEDP)1989-1994 52. The Secondary Education Development Project (SEDP) was a massive reform program in secondary education. It was a response to: the need to continue pupil development started by PRODED; the need to improve student performance in science, mathematics and communication arts, 53. 4.Secondary Education Development Improvement Project (SEDIP) 2000-2007 54. The Project components are: 1. Improving teaching and learning processes 2. Improving access to secondary education in underserved areas 3. Facilitating Decentralized Secondary Education Management 55. 5.Philippines- Australia Project in Basic Education (PROBE) 1996-2001 56. The Philippines-Australia Project in Basic Education, otherwise known as PROBE, was a five-year development cooperation program jointly funded by the Government of thePhilippines (GOP) and the Government of Australia (GOA). It was implemented from March 1996 to September 2000. 57. 6.Basic Education Assistance for Mindanao (BEAM)2000-2008 58. The Philippines-Australia Basic Education Assistance for Mindanao (BEAM) is a 6.3 year project of the Government of the Philippines and the Government of Australia. It is broken down into two stages of 2.3 and 4 years. 59. 7.Third Elementary Education Project (TEEP)1997-2006 60. The Third Elementary Education Project (TEEP) aims to improve the quality of public elementary education. It also aims to improve pupils performance in terms of: Learning achievement level Participation rate Completion rate Access to quality elementary education in the 22 poor provinces 61. namely: 1. Abra 2. Agusan del Sur 3. Antique 4. Apayao 5. Aurora 6. Batanes 7. Benguet 8. Biliran 9. Capiz 10. Cotabato 11. Eastern Samar 12. Guimaras 13. Ifugao 14. Kalinga 15. Leyte 16. Mountain Province 17. Masbate 18. Negros Oriental 19. Romblon 20. Southern Leyte 21. Surigao del Sur 22. Zamboanga del Sur 62. 8.Child-Friendly School System(CFSS) 63. The Child-Friendly School System is a project of the United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF) and the Department of Education (DepEd). The project underscores the need of child-friendly schools and desired outcomes for the children 64. 9. 2003 Trends in Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS ) 65. The TIMSS is a project of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (lEA), an independent international cooperative of national research institutions and government agencies, that has been conducting studies of cross-national achievement since 1959. 66. LESSON 2 NATIONAL INITIATIVES 67. The Department of Education has initiated programs funded by the national government and local government units. These initiatives aim to enhance teacher competencies and set realistic targets of increasing the achievement level of the learner . 68. 1. Science and Technology Education Plan (STEP) 69. The DepEd and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) spearheaded the formulation of a comprehensive plan of action to raise the quality of science education in the country. The first Science and Technology Education Plan (STEP I) was formulated and implemented during the period 1994-1998. An assessment of the project implementation showed that much more had to be done; hence, STEP II was formulated for the period 2001-2005. 70. 2.Accreditation of Public Elementary Schools 71. DepEd Memorandum No. 113, s. 2004, dated March 5,2004 (Appendix C) announced the nationwide implementation of the accreditation program for public elementary schools. The evaluation system was designed to empower public elementary schools to strive for excellence through recognition and enlightened self-evaluation based on agreed standards of excellence and incentives. 72. 3.Accreditation of Public High Schools 73. The concept of accreditation of public high schools was spearheaded by the DepEd through the Bureau of Secondary Education, the Ford Foundation, the National Association of Philippine Secondary School Heads Inc. (NAPSSHI) formerly known as the Philippine Association of Public Secondary School Association (PAPSSA), and the School of Education, Universityof Asia and the Pacific (UAP-SED). 74. 4.High School Bridge Program 75. In May 2004 about 1.4 million incoming students to public high schools took the High School Readiness Test (HSRT). The test assesses the mastery of learning competencies the elementary school graduates should possess to benefit from secondary education. The results revealed that 97.7% scored 50% and below in the HSRT. They lacked the essential skills in Reading and Comprehension in English, Science, and Mathematics needed to learn the content of the high school curriculum. 76. 5.Every Child A Reader Program (ECARP) 77. The Department of Education launched the Every Child a Reader Program (ECARP) to develop pupils reading and communication skills by Grade 3. It is designed to improve the delivery of instruction of reading teachers in Grades I to III 78. 6.National English Proficiency Program (NEPP) 79. Complementing the ECARP is the National English Proficiency Program (NEPP) which aims to improve the English proficiency of teachers and administrators. The Program was implemented in June 2003 in compliance with Executive Order 210 (mandating the use of the English language as the primary medium of instruction in all public and private institutions of learning). Some 53,412 high school teachers of English, Science and Mathematics were given the Self-Assessment Test to determine their English proficiency level. 80. 7.Strong Republic Schools-Distance Learning Program (SRS-DLP) 81. SRS was launched in June 2003 in response to President Arroyos directive to provide basic education to communities in conflict situations and to impoverished sectors of the population. Initially targeting 500 barangays nationwide, it utilizes modular lessons disseminated via mass media (TV, radio, cable network). At present, some 1,393 youths and adults have enrolled in the program and their lessons began in July 2003. 82. 8. Brigada Eskwela 83. 9. Adopt-A School Program Formalized by RA 8525, the Program is DepEds vehicle to mobilize support from the private and non-government sectors. Based on a menu of assistance packages developed by DepEd, interested companies can sponsor certain school programs/projects. 84. 10.Schools First Initiative In November 2004, the Department of Education launched the Schools First Initiative. The five core principles of Schools First are: 85. 11.School - Based Management 86. Based Management (SBM) is defined as decentralization of decision-making authority from central, regional and division levels to individual schools, uniting school heads, teachers, students as well as parents, the local government units and the community in promoting effective schools (Primer on School-Based Management and its Support Systems, 2005). 87. 12.Strengthening the Implementation of Basic Education in Selected Provinces in the Visayas (STRIVE) 88. The purpose of the project is: to assist the DepEd to improve the performance of students in Science, Mathematics and English and to provide basic education and / or livelihood opportunities for out- of- school youth and their families. 89. 13.Library Hub Project 90. The Library Hub Project is an investment in literacy through the DepEds Adopt-a-School program. 91. 14.Basic Education Sector Reform Agenda(BESRA ) 92. The Department of Education is pursuing a package of policy reforms expected to create critical changes necessary to further accelerate, broaden, deepen and sustain the improved education effort (BESRA, 2006-2010). 93. 15.Redesigned Technical-Vocational Education Program (RTVEP 94. The tech-voc program is being piloted in 135 out of the 261 tech-voc high schools. It is envisioned that high school graduates shall get a national certification in their skills from TESDA in addition to the high school diploma. 95. Ocballa/2008 96. MODULE2.1 MULTIGRADE TEACHING 97. LESSON I THE MULTIGRADE PROGRAMIN THE PHILIPPINES 98. The Constitution states that the state shall protect and provide the rights of a citizens to quality education at all levels and take appropriate steps to makeeducation accessible to all, and so it is hereby declared a policy that all public elementary schools, as much as practicable and consideringthe existing facilities and teachers, we offer complete six ( 6) grade levels to children in the remotes barangay, 99. LESSON 2 BASIC PRINCIPLES UNDERLYINGMULTIGRADE TEACHING 100. It can be said a good multigrade school is both efficient and effective, when children in the schoolprogress or move throughthe basic curriculum. 101. The instructional strategiesmay be varied to adjust to the different ages, levels and skills of the students and to the available resources, but the goals are the same. 102. Children in the multigrade classroom must achieve knowledge and competence in all subject areas.Effective multigrade schools maximizeaninquiryapproach to learning and as much as possible link up classroom or school learning to daily life. 103. PART II THE COMPONENTS OF AMULTIGRADE CLASSROOM 104. LESSON I THE HUMAN RESOURCESIN A MULTIGRADE CLASSROOM 105. A learning environmentis where children learn and teachers teach.The different elements of the learning environment are interrelated and interdependent . 106. Having a deeper understanding of the interrelation and interdepedence of these elements will help the teacher plan his/her day-to-day lessons/activities more effectively and thereby facilitate learning. 107. LESSON 2 THE PHYSICALENVIRONMENT 108. The multigrade classroom is arranged in such a way that it communicates important messages to the children about how the classroom will be used and how it is to function as a learning environment. 109. The teacher as planner and organizer is in charge of setting up and arranging the classroom so that there is a place for everything and everythingis in the proper place, In this way, the teacher as facilitator and instructor can function effectively. 110. PART III TEACHINGAND LEARNING PROCESS IN THE MULTIGRADECLASSROOM 111. LESSON I THE CURRICULUM 112. Curriculum development is a complex and challenging process that involves making many important of decisions. The multigradeteacheris not alone in this complex process of curriculumdevelopment. 113. Beinga part of a national educational system under thesupervision of the Departmentof Education, multigradeschools follow the curriculum prescribed by the Departmentfor all elementary schools nation wide. 114. LESSON 2 ORGANIZINGCURRICULUM 115. It is the responsibility of the classroom teacher, to organize the learning experiencesof students in such a way that the educational goals will reallybe achieved. The curriculum has comprehensive instructional objectivesand content in terms of statements of concepts to be taught . 116. But if the curriculum is poorly , organized , these goals and objectives will not be achieved and the concepts andskills to be taughtwill not be covered.Curriculum development is far from complete with simply the definition and prescription of goals and objectives.These are many ways of organizing the curriculum that a teacher can use. 117. PART IV TEACHING STRATEGIES FOR MULTIGRADE TEACHING 118. METHODS MOST COMMONLY LESSON I USED IN MULTIGRADE TEACHING 119. There are many ways that teachers in multigrade classes deliver instruction to students. Common methods include:lecture-recitation, smallgroups, work, independentstudy, pairedand peer tutoring , directinstruction.Eachinstructional strategy achieves different instructional purpose and effects studentachievement and attitude indifferent ways. 120. So it is importantto understands howthese methods of deliveringinstruction workaffectstudent learningand whatpurposethey best serve.The multigradeteacher can only assumemultiple roleswith the use of variety of instructional methods.There are certain methodsthat are especially effective in multigrade classrooms and the multigrade teacher should be prepared to implement them. 121. There are certain methodsthat are especially effective in multigrade classrooms and the multigrade teacher should be prepared to implement them.A multigradeclassroom is a more complexenvironmentso that instructiondelivery and classroom management strategies must be compatible and complementary. If the teacher relies primarily on whole-class/whole group instruction and lecture/ recitation methods, the children in each of the grade levels within the class will not learn to work independently and in small groups. 122. LESSON 2 GROUP WORK ANDGROUPING AS AN INSTRUCTIONALSTRATEGY 123.

In any classroom, whether single-grade or multigrade , the teacher is responsible for tryingto meet the various needs for 30, 40, 50students.However I the multigradeclassroom, these needs are more varied because of the combination of grade levels.So grouping children for different activities must be efficient and effective in order to manage both the number of students and range in ability.

Students can be grouped in many different ways:

By interestand student choice

Random assignment to combine ability levels and interests

According to ability

124. LESSON3 PEER TEACHING 125. In a mutligradeclass childrenlearn from one another.They constantlylearn from one another at play and work, or even in taking care of their basic needs being initiated to economic activities of the family and the country.Learningfrom children of the same age of a different age-older or younger is a dailyoccurrence. 126. 127. 128. Section 1 Our work in the Department of Education 129. 1. Legislation, policies and guidelines About legislation, policies and guidelines All citizens of the Philippines are accountable under national laws. Key national legislation impacts on the work of DepEd employees. Some legislation refers particularly to people with disabilities and highlights the education of learners with disabilities. DepEd has an inclusive education policy which is underpinned by international agreements about human rights and education. 130. What impact does legislation and policy have on my work? National legislation impacts on educators work The Education Act 1982 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines 1987 Child and Youth Welfare Code PD 603 1987 Magna Carta for Disabled Persons 1992 Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers 1997 (within Republic Act 4760) Governance of Basic Education Act 2001 All of these Acts have articles and sections that relate to working with learners with disabilities 131. Policies and Guidelines make more explicit, what schools will do to comply with legislation Department of Education Policies and Guidelines for Special Education(Revised Edition) 1997 DECS Order no. 26 Institutionalization of SPED programs in all schools Handbook on Special Education 1997 Handbook on Inclusive Education 1999 These policies and guidelines outline the objectives of DepEd for the education of learners with disabilities and provide a framework from which regions, divisions and schools develop their education plans. 132. Does DepEd legislation link to international developments? Yes. DepEd lists the legal mandates underpinning inclusive education in the Philippines Universal Declaration of the Rights of the Child 1959 The World Declaration on Education for All 1990 The Salamanca Statement 1994 The Agenda for Action of Asian & Pacific Decade of Disabled Persons 1993-2002 The Dakar Framework 2000 Philippine participation in these significant events has culminated in the Philippine Education for All 2015 Plan (2005) accessible on the UNESCO. 133. DepEds vision for Filipino children with special needs encompasses the vision of the family and community for a discrimination free quality education that supports development of potential productivity self expression of rights national pride love of God 134. The Legistation Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines 1987 & Magna Carta for Disabled Persons 1992 The mandate for provision of education to all people including those with a disabilities is couched within the Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines. ARTICLE XIV: Education, science and technology, arts, culture and sports 135. EDUCATION Section 1: The State shall protect and promote the right of all citizens to quality education at all levels, and shall take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all. The subsequent Act The Magna Carta for Disabled Persons makes more explicit what provision is required specifically in the area of education for learners with disabilities The Act covers: increased opportunities through development of skills and potentials the rights and respect of persons with disabilities service provision collaborative support 136. Section 12 describes requirements: access to quality education opportunities to develop skills it being unlawful for any learning institution to deny admission to courses on the grounds of handicap or disability. formulation of educational policies and programs taking special needs into account 137. Section 14 addresses special education, requiring the State to establish, maintain and support in all regions complete, adequate and integrated system of special education for those with vision impairment hearing impairment intellectual disabilities other types of exceptional children 138. The Education Act 1982 The Education Act recognizes the right of all people to quality education regardless of sex, age, breed, socio-economic status, physical and mental condition, social and ethnic origin, political and other affiliations 139. The Governance of Basic Education Act 2001 The Governance of Basic Education Act otherwise known as Republic Act 9155, affirms that all citizens have the right to access quality basic education attendance at elementary school is compulsory for Filipino children the goal of basic education is the provision of skills, knowledge and values enabling learners to become caring, seIf-reliant, productive and patriotic citizens schools have the single aim of providing the best possible basic education for all learners 140. The policies and guidelines Policies and Guidelines for Special Education (revised edition) 1997 The ultimate policy goal of DepEd for special education is the integration or mainstreaming of learners with special needs into the regular school system and eventually in the community. The policy reiterates the messages found in all of the legislation mentioned so far with a particular focus on learners with: gifts and talents physical impairment intellectual impairment social impairment sensory impairment cultural differences 141. 2. Roles & responsibilities of DepEd personnel 142. About Roles and responsibilities of DepEd personnel Every employee needs to be clear about the roles and responsibilities connected to their position. The Department of Education has a range of publications available that spell out the general roles and responsibilities of administrators and teachers. Other frameworks make more explicit their roles in relation to learners with disabilities. 143. Legislation: The Education Act The Governance of Basic Education Act The Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers Policies and guidelines Policies and Guidelines for Special Education Handbook on special education Handbook on inclusion 144. Roles and responsibilities of leaders "Principals must live with paradox: They must have a sense of urgency about improving their schools, balanced by the patience to sustain them for the long haul. They must focus on the future, but remain grounded in today. They must see the big picture, while maintaining a close focus on details. They must be strong leaders who give away power to others." Richard DuFour ("Help Wanted: Principals who can Lead Professional Learning Communities." NASSP Bulletin (1999).) 145. In brief, leaders of schools have responsibility for curriculum leadership welfare of staff and learners encouraging staff professional development day to day operation of the school building and maintaining positive school and community networks quality environment for teaching and learning 146. Responsibilities of teachers Who dares to teach must never cease to learn. John Cotton Dana I touch the future. I teach. Christa McAuliffe Teachers roles and responsibilities include management of the learning environment in which they teach development of teaching and learning opportunities for learners 147. o planning and programming o instruction o specific modifications and interventions o assessment of and for learning behaviour management reporting to families and the system community linkages eg identifying children with disabilities who are not attending school and encouraging families to take them to school 148. Section 2 Ourwork in schools & Communities. 149. 1. Working in schools 150. 1. Adult learning Schools in the Philippines are mandated to build strong linkages with the community and stakeholders. As schools and communities are complex social environments, skills in working together are crucial to maximizing positive learning. Dealing with adults takes on special significance when we consider their particular characteristics. Because of their life and work experiences over time, adults have valuable knowledge and experience to share respond to respectful approaches respond to acknowledgement of their capacities and experiences can experience a loss of confidence in new learning situations 151. 2. Communication True communication is the response you get. (Robert Kryosaki in Taylor 2005, p266) If meetings with stakeholders and school based learning teams are to be successful, then leaders and teachers will need to communicate effectively interacting in ways that project to stakeholders that they are in a respectful and supportive environment. 152. 2. Working with families 153. Working with families The families of learners with disabilities are valuable partners for educators. Family members are the first teachers of their children and so at the time their child commences school, parents and the child themselves are the holders of the most information about what the child knows and can do. This is the right time to organize an Individual Education Plan (IEP) meeting. 154. 3. Working with the community 155. Working with the community The Code of Ethics recognizes the teaching profession in the community, especially the barangay, as leaders and advocates active in the promotion of education for all. The local community comprises organizations, networks and people that are a valuable resource for schools: Local Government Unit Parent Teacher Community Association School Governing Council Government and Non Government Organisations (GOs and NGOs) Community members Families Other specialist organizations 156. Other specialist organizations may be involved with learners with disabilities.

Section 3 Our work with learners 158. About our work with learners What is taught isnt the same as how it is taught. Howell, Fox, Moorehead When teachers adopt multigrade teaching and learning, incorporate multiple intelligences and cater for preferred learning styles with multi sensory approaches, they will meet the needs of most learners in their classes. 159. 1. Holistic approaches & learners with disabilities 160. Different ways of learning If a child cant learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn. Ignacio Estrada DepEd mandates Education for All. Republic Act 9155 (2001) states Schools shall have a single aim of providing the best possible basic education for all learners..translated into programs, projects and services developed, adapted and offered to fit local needs. 161. 2. Inclusive Curriculum Section 3 162. Individualized Education Plans The Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meets legal and ethical mandates associated with the education of learners with disabilities outlined in Section 1. 163. Inclusive Teaching Inclusion is not a strategy to help people fit into the systems and structures which exist in our societies; it is about transforming those systems and structures to make it better for everyone. Inclusion is about creating a better world for everyone. Diane Richler, President, Inclusion International 164. Effective Teaching Multigrade teaching and learning A multigrade class has two or more grades in one class with one teacher. These methods are also successful in regular classes. In the Philippines, many schools in remote and isolated areas have more than one grade per classroom. Rather than treat each grade as a separate entity, learners are grouped in a variety of ways and taught using a variety of methods inclusive of all learners in the class. This has application in regular classes where there are learners with disabilities. 165. Multi-sensory teaching Multi-sensory teaching involves designing learning experiences so learners can engage more than one of the senses as they explore and learn. 166. Explicit teaching The explicit teaching cycle provides a framework to help introduce new concepts. Learning success is more likely to be recorded when the cycle is used alongside other effective strategies like multi-sensory teaching making appropriate adjustments 167. Inclusive planning: Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) BEC wants: Learners in the Philippines to be active learners using information in meaningful ways rather than only listening to lectures and recalling the information Teachers in the Philippines to use constructivist methods for teaching and learning Assessment that encourages learners to apply Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) The role of teachers in constructivist methodology is to structure the learning environment for all learners to learn Guide the learners as they construct their own understandings building on what they have already learned 168.

Inclusive planning: All, Most, Some & Blooms Taxonomy "Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!" (Theodor Seuss Geisel) All, Most, Some is a curriculum planning model conceived by Schumm, Vaughn, and Leavell (1994) It is an inclusive model because it is designed to cater for all learners in a class. What some will learn What most will learn What all will learn 170. Modifications and adjustments Teachers will plan for learners with disabilities in ways that support the learner to achieve require the least modification for success adjust the learning contexts to ensure access and participation 171. Adjustments Adjustments are special measures put in place to ensure learners can access and participate in learning activities. 172. 3. Including learners with disabilities 173. This section Including learners with disabilities now looks at the specific characteristics and learning needs of students with Attention deficit disorder Autism spectrum disorder Intellectual disability Learning disability Physical and multiple disabilities Sensory Impairments Hearing Vision Social and emotional problems Speech and Language impairment Teachers can quickly locate the information they 174.

Learning disability Learners whose skills are below expectation for their age and ability may be identified by parents or teachers as having learning difficulties. A small percentage of these may have learning disabilities. 178. Learning disabilities is a term used for learners with average or above intelligence yet who show signs of developmental and academic skills considerably below expectation for their age and general ability. Research suggests around 2-4% of children and students may have a learning disability A learning disability may include difficulties with the following: 1. confusion with text 2. working memory 3. sensory processing 4. communication 5. motor skills 179. Physical & multiple disabilities About physical & multiple disabilities A physical disability substantially limits one or more basic physical activities. Like other disabilities, physical disability can be mild to severe. At a mild level, a learner may successfully do most things that their peers can do.
