People with Down syndrome can lead happy and fulfilled lives. Increasingly they are being offered the opportunities to do so.

Help us continue to expand these opportunities today...

Education projects

Through our education projects we support families and professionals to help people with Down syndrome achieve sustained gains in all areas of their development.

For nearly 30 years, Down Syndrome Education International has disseminated the latest research findings in practical and accessible formats to the widest possible audience in the UK and worldwide.

Our current and planned education projects continue to provide reliable, evidence-based, practical information to benefit individuals with Down syndrome everywhere.

Current education projects

Our current education projects include a wide range of education activities including books, topic sheets, training courses, videos and teaching materials.
