Conductive Learning Center

SCHOOL AGE – INFANT/TODDLER – PRESCHOOL
To provide opportunities for preschool and school age children with motor challenges to achieve optimal physical cognitive and social independence through the application and promotion of conductive education principles.
Conductive Education is a psycho-educational approach that focuses primarily on the childs personality and lifestyle integrating physiological and medical aspects. It is a combined special education and physical therapy based on Petos theory that motor control can be learned. The approach focuses on improving the physical effects of a disability while encouraging motivation to become independent and increasing self esteem. The desired outcome is maximal independence called orthofunction which refers to the ability to enter school the community and ultimately the workforce with minimal or no artificial aids. This total approach to learning and training targets children under the age of six when the potential for impact is greatest and they can be prepared for the traditional classroom. When you do not educate the child to be independent you educate the child to be dependent. Maria Hari former director of the Peto Institute.
