Profound & Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD)
Learners with profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) have complex learning needs. In addition to very severe learning difficulties, learners have other significant difficulties, such as physical disabilities, sensory impairment or a severe medical condition. These learners require a high level of adult support for their learning needs and are likely to need sensory stimulation and a curriculum broken down into very small steps.

'Quest for learning' is a guidance and assessment resource to support teachers and classroom assistants of learners with PMLD, providing ideas for and pathways to learning.
