How does global developmental delay affect learning?

GDD can significantly impact a child’s learning by slowing their ability to understand concepts, follow instructions, and retain information. The degree of impact depends on the severity and areas of delay.

Learning may be affected through:

• Difficulty with memory and attention
• Slower language development and communication challenges
• Trouble with planning, sequencing, or processing information
• Struggles to adapt in structured learning environments
• Lower academic achievement without tailored support

Early intervention therapies and learning accommodations can help children with GDD reach their full potential.
