Helping the disabled pupil select writing equipment
Helping the disabled pupil select writing equipment
Jennifer Pascoe and her colleagues at Southampton Hospital have made a study of the handwriting difficulties experienced by pupils with physical disabilities. They review the range of ideas and aids available that facilitate pencil grip and support the hand. Although these findings relate to identifiable physical problems, readers will be aware that such advice is useful in relation to some very young children and to others sometimes described as ‘clumsy’ or ‘uncoordinated’.

Abstract
Jennifer Pascoe and her colleagues at Southampton Hospital have made a study of the handwriting difficulties experienced by pupils with physical disabilities. They review the range of ideas and aids available that facilitate pencil grip and support the hand. Although these findings relate to identifiable physical problems, readers will be aware that such advice is useful in relation to some very young children and to others sometimes described as ‘clumsy’ or ‘uncoordinated’.
