"Thank you for submitting a good end of grant report for your project which provides pre-school Conductive Education, gym club and swimming sessions, and  outcomes summarised as improved motor skills, improved communication skills and children having fun.
The additional differences really focused on the social interaction the project provides with peers, staff and families, and how parents/carers learn valuable skills themselves by attending, which can then be continued in the home. It was interesting to hear how one of your work experience students from college had previously attended sessions, how lovely that they now want to learn how to support other children."
