We had the wonderful opportunity to share with staff at Keystone Academy, a wonderful academy that supports students with learning needs.

Here are some of the topics we covered:

• Why working memory is the number one classroom skill
• How a poor working memory is a common thread in learning difficulties, including in those with Autism, ADHD and Dyslexia
• Why it is more important than IQ
• How focusing on working memory can improve learning
• We also talked about how small but crucial tweaks in lifestyle-like what your children eat and how much they sleep-can pay big dividends at school.
