this report was commissioned by the DME Trust to look at the provision that exists for learners with dual or multiple exceptionality (DME). It looks at the experiences of parents, carers, educators and service providers. The conclusion was that many learners with DME remain unidentified and unsupported by the education system \u2013 with many disengaging from learning or struggling with mental health issues. It offers recommendations on how to improve the outcomes and wellbeing of learners with DME.\u00a0 Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/potentialplusuk.org\/index.php\/dme-trust\/the-current-state-of-provision-for-learners-with-dme-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Current Provision Report<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=&#8221;30&#8243;

This includes having neurodevelopmental conditions, learning difficulties, disabilities or mental health issues alongside their high learning potential. The term DME means the same thing as the term \u2018twice exceptional\u2019, or \u20182e\u2019, that is used in the US, Australia and in other parts of the world.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631188824526{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 10px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;padding-top: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631189011318{padding-top: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1645482781372{margin-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;]The term DME reflects the fact that an individual may have more than one SEND alongside high learning potential, for example be on the autism spectrum and have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder alongside exceptional cognitive abilities.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that 5-10% of children with high learning potential also have a special educational need. It is estimated that 2-5% of children with an identified special educational need also have high learning potential. Therefore, individuals with dual or multiple exceptionality could be described as a minority within a minority.<\/p>\n<p>The term dual or multiple exceptionality is used to cover high learning potential alongside:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Neurodevelopmental conditions, such as autism, attention deficit disorders, sensory processing disorder and dyspraxia<\/li>\n<li>Learning difficulties such as dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia<\/li>\n<li>Sensory and speech impairments<\/li>\n<li>Mental health issues<\/li>\n<li>Physical disabilities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u201cPupils with DME benefit from a focus on ability rather than continual focus on additional needs.\u201d <\/em><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>(Helping to find and support children with dual or multiple exceptionalities, Department for Children, Schools and Families (2008))<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1630665069837{margin-right: 10px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;34930&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Supporting DME&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|font_size:30|text_align:center|color:%233a4245&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631192014910{background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631191949259{border-right-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;]In order to avoid problems and to support them to meet their potential, young people with dual or multiple exceptionality need recognition and understanding both at home and at school. Most fundamentally, they need support for both their high learning potential and their difficulty or disability, as supporting one without the other will cause further pressure or frustration.<\/p>\n<p>Support for young people with DME should start with their strengths. In this way, opportunities are created for them to express their abilities, frustrating limits are not placed upon them, and confidence is built. This kind of support will help young people with DME to manage their additional needs, too.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=&#8221;35&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1630665091152{margin-right: 10px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1629577621379{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;About the DME Trust&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|font_size:30|text_align:center|color:%233a4245&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1630668714021{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #d3dce5 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631192989322{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;]The DME Trust is a partnership that has been set up to support the needs of children with dual and multiple exceptionality (DME).<\/p>\n<p>It provides information and advice on DME for children, their families, schools and professionals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Mission<\/strong> is to improve the lives and education of young people with dual or multiple exceptionality (SEND with high learning potential).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Vision<\/strong> is to work to advance the understanding of dual or multiple exceptionality and to realise the rights of appropriate education for individuals with DME to help them fulfil their potential.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1630598719412{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<strong>Our Values<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Strength-based Approach<\/strong> &#8211; We consider that the greatest advantage is to be gained by using a strength-based approach to support and personal development.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Collaboration<\/strong> &#8211; We will work in collaboration with others to deliver our vision because no one organisation or person can do this alone.
