Neurodevelopmental disorders are a group of conditions that affect a child's brain development and can impact their behaviour, emotions, and cognitive abilities. These disorders typically manifest early in childhood and can have a significant impact on a child's academic, social, and emotional development.
Some of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children include:
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): A neurodevelopmental disorder that impacts social communication, behaviour, and interests.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): A disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
Specific Learning Disorder (SLD): A disorder that affects a child's ability to read, write, or do math despite adequate opportunities to learn.
Intellectual Disability (ID): A condition that affects a child's intellectual functioning and adaptive behaviour.
Language Disorder: A disorder that affects a child's ability to understand or use language effectively.
