Others, you feel, may have a special need but just do not quite fit the classic profile and leave you wondering exactly how to support them in the classroom and beyond. You may identify still others as having a learning need but are just too bright for the usual support you can offer. Have you ever considered that these learners might be what are called Dual or Multiple Exceptional (DME)? This advice sheet explains what DME is, how it can affect a learner, what you can do to spot the signs of DME in the classroom and how to develop a strategy for supporting learners with DME within school.<\/p>\n<p>Purchase and Download the School Advice Sheet <a href=\"https:\/\/potentialplusuk.org\/index.php\/product\/s601-high-learning-potential-with-special-educational-needs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">High Learning Potential with Special Educational Needs \u00bb<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator border_width=&#8221;2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1595945730937{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>S602 &#8211; Identifying Dual or Multiple Exceptional Learners<\/h3>\n<p>This advice sheet is aimed at teachers in all school phases and gives guidance about how to identify dual or multiple exceptional learners (high potential learners with one or more special educational need). Some learners are not able to easily demonstrate their ability or potential in a traditional way within the classroom and this can lead to them being missed, making it highly likely that they will not have the opportunities they need to thrive and gain personal and educational fulfilment. Here we will look at various approaches that can be taken to ensure that these children do not fall through the net.<\/p>\n<p>Purchase and Download the School Advice Sheet <a href=\"https:\/\/potentialplusuk.org\/index.php\/product\/s602-identifying-dual-or-multiple-exceptional-learners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Identifying Dual or Multiple Exceptional Learners \u00bb<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator border_width=&#8221;2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1595945730937{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>S603 &#8211; Checklist of Characteristics of DME Learners<\/h3>\n<p>This information is aimed at SENCOs and lead teachers in all school phases.
