What I Need In School WINS 2023

Children with epilepsy are at a greater risk of learning and behavioural difficulties than children without epilepsy. Despite this, there is a lack of research exploring the views and experiences of young people with epilepsy, their parents and school staff with regards to educational supports that could aid learning in children with the condition.

What Helps? What Hinders? 2012

What helps children with epilepsy to be included in education? What factors can hinder inclusion? These are the questions that the research outlined in this report set out to address. We have investigated whether children with epilepsy are fully included in all aspects of school life. This includes all areas of learning and the curriculum, social engagement and extracurricular activities.
