CPD/CEU AUTISM TRAINING
FOR TEACHERS
As a teacher who teaches students on the autism spectrum, you may look for a better way to help your students. This year you may have been struggling, as many teachers have with changes in your school, but feel there is something missing.
You may feel that your students are ready to learn in your classroom. However, poor language understanding and distressed behaviours are impeding your teaching and helping them to progress.
You may search for techniques that actually work on the internet, with books and with other events. However, you may feel that you're not getting that missing piece, which really helps you in your teaching and support your students to progress.
Some challenges you may experience as a teacher could be...
