In School Training

We have created a training model that allows you, as the purchaser, to select the modules that are most relevant to your setting: we want our training packages to meet your needs.

Please note that although our training is autism specific, the strategies suggested are good practice for all children and young people in your setting.

1 – Understanding autism

We will learn about autism and how it may impact the children and young people that you work with: looking at their strengths and considering the four areas of difference—sensory, communication, interaction and thought processes. There will be time to think about specific individuals in your setting.

2 – Autism: in-depth

We will look at autism in more depth, including theory of mind, executive functioning and central coherence.

3 – Girls and Autism

We will think about why there appears to be an increase in diagnosis for girls, how autism may present in girls and how best to support girls with autism at home or in a setting.

4 – Masking

We will discover why children and young people may mask, how to notice masking and strategies to help those individuals in your setting.

5 – Emotional regulation

This module provides practical strategies to help children and young people recognise and understand their emotions and develop positive strategies to regulate them.

6 – Classroom strategies

Practical and ongoing strategies to use daily in the classroom. Please specify whether you would like a focus on Early Years, Primary or Secondary.
