These topics offer general guidance, not assessment or diagnosis. What helps one child may not help another, so adapt thoughtfully and review together.
Understand special educational needs and disabilities, consider strengths and barriers, and identify practical ways to support participation.
Explore supportive approaches to attention, planning, movement, routines and emotional regulation in everyday learning.
Consider communication, sensory differences, predictability and the child’s own preferences when making inclusive adjustments.
Find gentle, practical ways to reduce pressure, build emotional safety and prepare for situations that feel difficult or uncertain.
For families and carers
Begin with what the child enjoys, what feels difficult, when barriers appear and what already helps. You can bring questions, examples or concerns without needing specialist language.
For schools and educators
Review the task, environment, communication and expectations before locating the difficulty solely within the child. Use professional judgement and involve pupils and families in understanding what works.
For practitioners and partners
Share only what is necessary, explain consent and limits clearly, and avoid asking families to repeat their story without good reason. A referral should make the next step easier to understand.
Understand the family’s question and the child’s context.
Explain what your service can and cannot provide.
Agree what information may be shared and why.
Offer a clear handover, next action and review point.
