Education
Above Materials are provided by England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales
Children and adults with PWS vary considerably in their cognitive abilities, ranging from severe learning disabilities through to mild or no learning disabilities, although in the latter case their emotional development can impact on the way they use the knowledge they have. Children may attend mainstream or special schools, depending on their ability and the amount of support they can access. Although there are only a few adults with PWS in full-time employment, many have a fulfilling life through part-time or voluntary work, or accessing educational courses.
For advice and support about applying for an Education, Health and Care Need Assessment about EHC plans, or about appealing a Local Authority decision. Please contact the office on +6012-339 5232 or email malaysiapws@gmail.com
