Is dyspraxia a disability?

In Australia, dyspraxia is recognised as a disability under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 because it significantly affects daily life activities. Many children with dyspraxia require ongoing support at home, school, and in the community. The condition can make self-care, handwriting, sports, and academic learning more challenging. Families can access help through the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) if the impact is substantial and long-term. With the right supports, children can improve functional skills and achieve greater independence.

If you’re unsure whether your child qualifies for NDIS dyspraxia support, book a consultation now.
