Inclusion for individuals with Down’s syndrome across mainstream education settings
The Down’s Syndrome Association and partners have developed a new resource for all education professionals, thanks to Big Lottery Funding.
The Celebrating Success series brings to life the DSA Education Support Packs by using case studies written in the words of teachers, assistants and parents. The series is split into four areas of education – Early Years, Primary, Secondary and Further Education/Employment and demonstrates how to implement successful inclusion across each key phase of education.
In order to make them available to as wide an audience as possible they are available to download free of charge as PDFs.

Thyroid disorders are significantly more common in people with Down’s syndrome. Thyroid dysfunction can result in a wide range of symptoms and affects a wide range of body functions. It is therefore important for all people with Down’s syndrome to have yearly blood tests throughout their life. In most people the thyroid dysfunction is easily treatable.
