The book is based on a successful five-step approach to help children acquire the skills needed to manage at school and daily life.

It encourages teachers to identify improvements in the child’s progress of not just educational learning targets but also in physical motor development, using real life case studies, latest theory and tried & tested occupational therapy methods to help every child improve.
