How can we help at school?
- Do not baby her
- Give responsibility
- Discuss with the pupil equipment/ seating size- some would prefer to 'manage' with larger equipment than appear different in class.
- Be sensitive to peer comments/ bullying / general awareness of the condition
- Be sensitive around the age of puberty when girls naturally start to compare their changing bodies.
- Explore sports where height is not an issue eg Horseridng, gymnastics, dancing
