Assistive technology for students with learning disabilities market was valued at $154.67 million in 2020, and is estimated to reach $298.13 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2021 to 2030.
Learning disability is a neurodevelopmental disorder that negatively impacts a person's ability to listen, speak, read, write, or make calculations. A learning disability is distinct from intellectual development disorder; children with learning disability usually have at least average intelligence but are still not able to acquire academic skills expected for their age, intellectual ability, experience, and education.
According to a recently released Public Health England survey, individuals with learning disabilities are more likely to be exposed to COVID-19 infection. These people are at high risk of losing their lives due to the COVID-19 infection, due to lack of care provided to individuals with disabilities. This has created incremental benefits for businesses in the market for learning disability treatment, where organizations can minimize mortality rates by encouraging routine patient testing. To minimize exposure to COVID-19, routine staff testing and proper sanitization of their personal protective equipment (PPE) are important. Furthermore, many learning disability organizations started online services such as webinars in everyday business to help patients get the care they need while staying safe.
Increase in prevalence of learning disorders, rise in special schools, and growth in awareness program regarding learning disability drive the market growth. Moreover, growing awareness about mental disorders through education and advocacy for more respect of human rights and less stigma drive the growth of the global assistive technology for students with learning disabilities market. However, limited availability of special teachers is expected to hamper the market growth.
Governments have been taking various initiatives to enhance the lives of individuals suffering from learning disabilities. For instance, the Government of Europe is focused on reducing health inequalities for people with learning disabilities and have established various national programs to enhance the treatments and outcomes.
Furthermore, Europe’s parliament has funded several pilot projects implemented by the Commission to test the feasibility and usefulness of an action. For instance, VulnerABLE (2015–2017) explored ways to improve the health of people living in vulnerable and isolated situations across Europe. Owing to their circumstances, these groups may be at a greater risk of poor health, and may also face barriers in accessing healthcare services. The project focused, in particular, on children and families from disadvantaged backgrounds; those with physical, mental, and learning disabilities; or poor mental health. These government initiatives are expected to aid in creating awareness about learning disabilities, which, in turn, is likely to notably contribute toward the growth of the market
