Do you have a school-going child who doesn’t seem to fit into the education system? Every child is different when it comes to learning, so parents and teachers need to know how to support children with these different learning abilities, as well as those with learning difficulties. Our experts are here to help guide you and your children, especially after a challenging year in education and online learning.
