The term 'working memory' refers to the capacity to store and manipulate information for brief periods of time.  There is now evidence that working memory predicts current and subsequent scholastic attainments of children accross the school years in both literacy and numeracy.

At this conference Dr. Tracey Packiam Alloway of Durham & York University will discuss two different tools for effectively identifying Children with poor working memory skills and the support they require to progress.
