Pupil Support
We support pupils with a diagnosis of an Autism in mainstream schools. Support in schools usually begins with one of the specialists observing a child in the class. We can offer support with a variety of issues such as:
· Including the child more fully into the class
· Exploring ways in which the curriculum and work can be adapted
· Understanding communication, sensory and behaviour difficulties
· Developing the pupil's and other pupils’ understanding of ASD
· Supporting pupils through the process of school transition
Contact Us
Class teachers, SENCOs, Educational Psychologists and GP’s, can all make referrals for any pupil who has a diagnosis of an Autism.
