Conductive education is a unique system of teaching and learning for children with motor disorders such as cerebral palsy and spina bifida. It is designed to improve motor skills and increase independence of many aspects of common living. It is not a cure, but a method of exercises and education which are broken down into basic functional movements. The exercises are performed intensively (5 hours per day, 5 days per week) in small groups which promotes interactivity and fun.

Conductive Education is a form of special education and rehabilitation for children and adults with motor disorders. It is appropriate for conditions where disease or damage to the central nervous system affects a person's ability to control movement. In childhood these conditions include cerebral palsy and dyspraxia, and in adulthood, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and those who have had a stroke or head injury.
Conductive Education as the name suggests, is an educational approach. Its aim is to help children and adults with motor disorders learn to overcome problems of movement as a way of enabling them to live more active and independent lives.
In addition to improvements in bodily control, parents, adult service-users and their families frequently report on an increase in confidence, motivation and general well-being. The combination of these can often lead to the successful management of and participation in a wide range of social and personal situations.
Conductive Education (more properly conductive pedagogy) has been chiefly directed towards what it terms ‘motor disorders’, that is problems of co-ordinating and controlling movements, resulting from disease or damage to the central nervous system. It may be provided, in age-appropriate adaptations, for people of all ages and whatever the age at which the condition began, from the first years of life right across the age-span to the frailty of old age.
Due to the frequent close mutual dependence of children and adults with motor disorders and their families, the benefits of Conductive Education may be experienced as strongly by family carers as by those directly involved.
In adulthood Conductive Education is provided for people who have experienced a range of conditions, including Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and the after-effects of head injuries and strokes. In childhood, the most commonly served conditions are the cerebral palsies.
The fundamental tenet of conductive pedagogy for motor disorders is to address problems that may arise from motor disorders as problems of learning, coupled with an underlying assumption that everyone is capable of learning if appropriately taught; problems of learning are therefore construed as problems of teaching. There may be potentially many pedagogies through which to address such problems: conductive pedagogy has currently gained a small foothold in most of the advanced economies, part of a worldwide conductive movement.
