Many autistic children struggle with school. They become unhappy and they show us this through their behaviour. They may become reluctant to go, they may have meltdowns after school, they may become disruptive or 'lose their spark'.
Parents and educators are often left unsure what to do - the child can't tell them what is wrong, but it's clear that something is. What can you do?
In this course for parents and educators, Naomi will talk about the reasons why many autistic children do not thrive at school. She'll help you understand how the interaction between the child and the school can make all the difference - and how you can improve this. You'll end the webinar with a better understanding of the experience of autistic children at school, and some ideas as to what you can do.
She'll draw on the experiences of autistic adults and parents of autistic children from her acclaimed book, A Different Way to Learn, as well as her experience as a clinical psychologist specialising in autism and trauma.
This course is available to watch for 12 months after purchase.

Why are so many autistic teenagers anxious - and what can parents do to help? Gain understanding, insight and practical tips in this mini-course by Dr Naomi Fisher.
Things have gone wrong at school for your teenager, and now it’s like they have nothing left. They have lost their sense of what made life worth living. You don’t know how to help, and sometimes it seems like whatever you do makes things worse. Naomi will explain how burnout happens and what the process of recovery looks like.
Your child isn’t happy at school. They are protesting in the mornings, or having meltdowns in the afternoons. They tell you that they don’t want to go, and you feel torn between them and the school. School are telling you that the answer is to keep pushing, as you don’t want to reinforce avoidance or behaviour. It’s starting to dominate everything about your family life, and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better.
