Child hood stroke: Children can recover well from a stroke, especially at this age. It is important to prevent future strokes. If this is being handled, the next step would be special training and teaching. A child's brain is still developing, and it is possible with some tutoring or special mentoring he will be able to perform better with school tasks. Hope this helps!

Rehabilitation: It s first necessary to follow the treatment plan designed to prevent another ischemic stroke, and a physical rehabilitation plan to recover as much physical function as possible. Then he needs an educational assessment and rehabilitation program, which may be referred through your pediatric neurologist or school system.
