introduction (Easy Read)

Welcome to this textbook/ blog. It is designed to help you with your work or studies in the field of learning disabilities and mental health, whether you are at school, college, university, or elsewhere.

I will also provide quizzes for those preparing for exams. Even if your exams are not exactly the same, the quizzes should be similar and useful for your learning. You can practise as much as you like, whenever you want, for as long or as short a time as you need.

The answers to the quiz questions will be available on my website: Sara’s Learning Disability and Mental Health Awareness Blog. You are welcome to use other references as well.

A word of advice:
When your exams are approaching—ideally about a month before—start revising and try to rely less on references. Colleges and exam boards may not allow references during exams unless a question specifically asks you to use them. Even then, it will usually only be a few questions, not all.

Do not copy anyone else’s work. Write your answers in your own words. Questions in exams may be written differently from mine—for example, they might ask you to give reasons for your answers. Keep in mind that while I do not set time limits, colleges and exam boards usually do.

This book is also for people of all ages—from birth and throughout life—who face learning disabilities or mental health challenges, as well as their parents, families, carers, learners, and workers in the field.

I believe that learning disability and mental health training should be taught in schools from as young an age as possible. Bullying and abuse can happen to anyone, by anyone, for any reason. While there is never an excuse for bullying, disabilities and mental health conditions are not always understood. Early education can help reduce misunderstanding and promote kindness and inclusion.

Why Learning Disability and Mental Health Awareness Should Be Raised Everywhere (Easy Read)

I feel that learning disability and mental health awareness should be shared with as many people and places as possible.

• When more people understand, it helps to reduce bullying and discrimination.

• Awareness helps people support each other better at school, work, and in the community.

• It teaches people that disabilities and mental health conditions are part of life and nothing to be ashamed of.

• Early education can help children grow up kinder and more understanding.

• The more places this awareness is taught—schools, workplaces, public services—the more society becomes inclusive and safe for everyone.

In short: awareness saves lives, improves opportunities, and makes the world a fairer, kinder place.
