Children and young people with Complex Learning
Difficulties and Disabilities have co-existing and
overlapping conditions which can manifest in complex
learning patterns, extreme behaviours, and a range of
socio-medical needs which are new and unfamiliar to
many educators. Their combination of issues and layered
needs mean they often disengage from learning, and challenge even our most
experienced teachers.
