About
- Description
- Our society, Distinctive Learning Society, was established in 2001, comprising professionals from different circles as experienced volunteer supporters of the children with a disability or learning difficulties. We have been trying our best to acquaint the public with the students with special educational needs (SEN) and inclusive education through seminars and so on, thus enabling them to grasp the means of lending the children suitable assistance in the course of learning. Besides, it is our practice to give counsel to the parent(s) on request.
- For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
