Autism and behaviour: analysing and managing
This course will provide staff with ways to analyse behaviour in autistic children, taking into account their specific learning and processing styles. This will lead to discussing practical strategies to manage behaviour in school, including designing behaviour plans and links to school behaviour policies.
It is recommended that LSAs attend together with the school SENCO, so that strategies can be integrated within school-based behaviour policies and plans.
