Comment: | The Foundation for Conductive Education is a national charity established in 1986 to develop and advance the science and skill of Conductive Education in the UK.

The National Institute of Conductive Education provides direct services to children and adults with motor disorders; cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, children with dispraxia and those who have suffered strokes and head injuries. Through a system of positive teaching and learning support, Conductive Education maximises their control over bodily movement in ways that are relevant to daily living. Services include Parent and Child (up to three years old), Early Intervention (three to seven), a Specialist Primary School for children with cerebral palsy and sessions for young adults and adults. The National Institute also undertakes research and offers a comprehensive range of professionally orientated, skills based training courses at all levels including a BA (Hons.) degree in conjunction with the University of Wloverhampton.
