    Auditory Processing Disorder

    This is the system which transfers and decodes what we hear and sometimes the brain can’t make sense of the sounds that it hears. It is also known as Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). One of the biggest struggles is listening with background noise.

    An assessment for Auditory Processing can be done by a qualified audiologist. To help children with APD it can be helpful to:

    • Break instructions down into small steps
    • Sitting close to the person teaching
    • Writing instructions down
    • Double check with the child for understanding
    • Asking the child to repeat the instructions
    • Reduce background noise
    • A quiet study area at home for homework and reading
    • The use of an Assistive Listening Device eg. An FM in the classroom
