Co‑occurring
Co‑occurring means more than one condition or profile is present at the same time. It can change support needs.
Definition
Co‑occurring profiles can include ADHD and anxiety, autism and dyslexia, or other combinations. Support should consider how needs overlap rather than treating each in isolation. This is educational guidance, not diagnostic advice. Personalised support is important.
Why it matters here
Our recommendations allow multiple support needs without forcing a single label.
