AIM: Children with special health care needs (SHCN) perform more poorly at school compared to their classmates. Specific causal pathways have not yet been extensively studied. Therefore, we investigated teacher-rated global attention, an important prerequisite for educational attainment, in children with SHCN.
METHODS: Data of a population-based prospective cohort study, which recruited preschool children from the Mainz-Bingen area, Germany, were analysed. Children with SHCN were identified by the Children with Special Health Care Needs screening tool. In 2016, global attention was reported by teachers at the end of first grade (mean age: 7.3 years) on a 5-point rating scale ranging from -2 through +2. Associations between SHCN consequences and teacher-rated attention were estimated by linear mixed models, adjusted for confounding variables.
RESULTS: We included 1921 children (51% males); of these, 14% had SHCN. Compared to their classmates, children with SHCN had poorer teacher-rated attention scores (adjusted mean difference: -0.35, 95% CI: -0.52 to -0.17). The effect was strongest among children with treatment or counselling for mental health problems or functional limitations. The effect remained after excluding children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder from the analysis.
CONCLUSION: Children with SHCN showed more teacher-rated attention problems, which could explain their lower educational attainment.
