    Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders caused by brain damage that affects muscle tone, movement, and motor skills. It has no cure but can be treated with therapies. There are three main types - spastic, athetoid, and ataxic cerebral palsy - which are further classified topographically, such as hemiplegia, diplegia, and quadriplegia. Conductive education aims to teach people with cerebral palsy how to live through a holistic system of education using techniques like the task series, rhythmic intention, and supportive classroom management.
