Teaching someone with M.E.

M.E. is now widely recognised as a serious, long term, fluctuating illness.

The World Health Organisation has classified M.E. as a neurological illness and the NHS has published official guidelines on diagnosis and symptom management.

If one of your pupils or students has been diagnosed with M.E. or shows classic symptoms - such as peaks and troughs in health and energy levels, muscle pain, headache, problems with concentration - they need your support.
