The 12-week programme<\/a> is designed to support both parents and schools. If a child is having difficulties in more than one area, please talk together (with the teacher, parent, and child) and choose just a few things to focus on first.<\/p>\n For tips on setting goals, see our guide: Coaching approach<\/a> (pdf)<\/p>\n Please scroll down to the boxes below to see our recommended activities. If your child has multiple difficulties, please prioritise and focus on 3 or 4 goals at a time. Please try these activities for 12 weeks. Regular and consistent practice is the key to learning new skills, especially for children with motor co-ordination difficulties.<\/p>\n If there is absolutely no improvement after regular and consistent practice over 12 weeks, then please return the 12 week questionnaire<\/a>, giving as much detail as you can. Please send this via email to OxonChildrens.Therapies@oxfordhealth.nhs.uk<\/a>.\u00a0 We may ask you for more information if we need this.<\/p>\n If your child has not already been referred to us and you are using the 12 week programme because it was recommended to you by a school or someone else, then please seek a referral<\/a> to our service via your GP and send in the 12 week questionnaire following this.<\/p>\n You can also visit the CanChild website<\/a> to learn more about developmental coordination disorder and our parent workshop.<\/p>\n You can also visit the \u201cWatch Me Do It\u201d<\/a> video library on the Manchester Metropolitan University website.<\/p>\n Access Occupational and fine motor skills<\/strong><\/a> or Gross motor skills<\/strong><\/a> for more detailed information:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About this programme The 12-week programme is designed to support both parents and schools.
