🔤 Language textbook exercises can be especially challenging for children with DCD.

Reading may be slower and more tiring, while handwriting demands significant attention.

Adapted materials can reduce these barriers.

🇪🇺 Funded by the EU through Horizon Europe.

📚 Why focus on primary school?

This is where children build the reading, writing and maths skills they will rely on throughout school.

Lab2School4All aims to remove barriers for children with DCD through adapted textbooks.

🇪🇺 Funded by the EU through Horizon Europe.
