Supporting children and young people with learning, communication or behaviour issues
I work with children, young people and adults to help understand their learning and behaviour and think about how their needs can best be met.
I can:
- work directly with children or young people to find out about their views and assess their abilities;
- meet with parents and professionals to discuss how to put helpful strategies in place;
- write a report to summarise work done;
- write a report to support a request for special arrangements for exams (access arrangements) or an educational and health care plan (EHCP);
- hold a one off discussion to talk through concerns;
- deliver a series of regular sessions with a child or young person to help them overcome barriers to their progress
Requests for involvement cover children and young people with a wide range of profiles including:
- General learning difficulties
- Developmental delay
- Specific learning difficulties; dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia (Developmental Coordination Difficulties, DCD), Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder (ADD, ADHD)
- Speech, language and communication difficulties
- Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC)
- Social, emotional or behaviour difficulties
- Physical or sensory difficulties e.g. visual or hearing impairments
- Genetic conditions e.g. Down’s Syndrome
- Gifted and talented
