| Abstract: | ABSTRACT Some of the difficulties for the uptake of conductive pedagogy in the UK lie in cultural differences that are worth examining as issues of comparative education. In part, the difficulties arise from differing national perceptions of disabled people in society, from the low availability of authoritative information on the pedagogy and from different perspectives on the curriculum. In part, the different cultures of therapists and teachers in the UK may cause problems too. Collaboration may be difficult in an area, such as motor disorder, where more than one professional group has a legitimate and close professional stake. Failure to address these issues will make it difficult for conducting to establish a place in British education. |
