Pupils with dyscalculia are to receive more support in Saxony in future. Recognition as a partial performance weakness is currently being examined, the Ministry of Education announced. As part of the compensation for disadvantages, affected children and young people could then, for example, receive more time for tasks, additional aids and targeted support.
"We are hoping for a broad majority in the state parliament and will then implement this quickly," emphasized Minister of Education Conrad Clemens (CDU). He is pleased about the open cross-party discourse. "We are all united by the goal of providing more targeted support for affected pupils."
