SUMMARY:Neurodiversity in Education Parent/Carer Group Session - Southern Cross
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a neurodivergent* (ND) child or young person who goes to Southern Cross school? \nIf you do\, we’d love for you to join us on at this parent group session – a great chance to meet other parents/carers of ND children\, share your experiences of school\, hear about the Neurodiversity in Education (formerly called Autism in Schools) project\, and find out about support that may be available for your family. 🗣️☕🥐 \nWe’re also pleased to announce that\, on this day\, we will be joined by 2 senior leads from the school’s Outreach (EBSA & EBSD) Pathway. \nThe session is open to all parents and carers of autistic and ND pupils who go to Southern Cross\, whether they have a formal diagnosis or not. \nNo need to book; just drop in! (But it would be great if you can let us know so we can bring enough food for everyone) \n* Neurodivergent is an umbrella term for anyone with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)\, autism\, Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD or dyspraxia)\, Developmental Language Disorder (DLD)\, dyslexia\, learning disability\, Tourette’s Syndrome\, and any other conditions/differences that are not considered ‘neurotypical’. \n\n
