Anxiety is very much part of growing up and is something that we will all face at some point in our lives. However, Autistic children can experience Anxiety more intensely and more frequently than other children. Throughout the following modules, we will consider how best to support children with Autism.  

When faced with a child who is worried or anxious, it can be hard to know how best to help and sometimes in trying to help, we end up making things worse.  In this course, Pooky helps you to understand the cycle of anxiety and the simple steps you can take to help your child feel like together you are taking control of their anxiety rather than letting their anxiety control them. The course has been developed and delivered by Dr Pooky Knightsmith and is aimed at parents and carers and other champions of children aged ten and under, though you may find the ideas are more widely applicable. The development of this course has been supported by Resilient Rutland who are funded by the National Lottery Community fund.

Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs are needs that can be an obstacle to formal learning in a similar way to other SENDs, and yet the differentiation for learning is sometimes hazy. In addition, some pupils with SEMH also have other SENDs – how do you account for both in your classroom? 

This course gives you an overview of practical approaches and solutions to supporting the needs of these young people – how to prevent behaviour getting in the way of learning and how to support the pupils’ strengths to help them understand that education can be for them too. 

This is a course for anyone new to Speech, Language and Communication Needs and wanting to find out more about them. It aims to give you the basics so that you can start to identify pupils who may be displaying tendencies and work with those pupils to support their needs. We’ll therefore give you advice and simple ideas you can put into practice straight away and approaches to adapt and trial. It may be that the pupil needs further support so we’ll talk about what other avenues you may want to pursue. Great for teachers new to the profession, support staff or anyone wanting to check their understanding and support pupils to have the best possible outcomes.
