A network for those supporting learners with a physical disability.

Pdnet is a free to join, national network that provides professionals in education with support in promoting positive outcomes for children and young people with physical disability.

The MOVE Programme is an activity-based framework that enables disabled young people to gain independent sitting, standing, walking and transferring skills.

The Programme champions a holistic approach that places the child or young person and their family at the centre and encourages collaboration between education and therapy teams to work towards the same meaningful goals.

Unlike other approaches, MOVE is not another add on to the child’s day and has been designed to ensure vital movement opportunities are integrated into all areas of the learning day, making use of lots of different environments and motivating activities.

 The Health Conditions in Schools Alliance (HCSA) is a coalition of over 25 organisations, including charities, healthcare professional groups and trade unions who work together to ensure children with health conditions receive the support they need to thrive in school.  Lots of free templates!

Don't be afraid to reach out to the Consultant, Nurse Specialist, Community Nurse, Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist. The family /child should be at the centre of all care planning, but risk assessments will need support from health.
