A Life-Changing Skill for Neurodiverse Learners

For many learners with SEND, handwriting is a barrier to success. Touch typing provides a powerful alternative — one that can:

  • Improve quantity and quality of written work

  • Reduce frustration and fatigue

  • Build independence in the classroom and beyond

  • Support focus and spelling retention through muscle memory

Touch typing allows the brain to focus on what is being written, not how it’s written.
