Providing physical education programmes for children with autism and ADHD

 

 

This venture adopts sports technology to improve the physical health and behaviours of children with autism and Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Sports data and an online matching platform will be utilised to match autistic/ADHD children with special-needs-friendly sports coaches and parents can enrol their children to suitable and affordable physical education programmes.

It is expected that 150 autistic/ADHD children will participate in the sports technology training programme with data tracking. The venture will also collaborate with NGOs and academics to organise two seminars/ conferences for 100 education professionals, parents, caregivers and SEN service workers to share the programme’s findings.
