Common starting points

Explore support by topic.

These topics offer general guidance, not assessment or diagnosis. What helps one child may not help another, so adapt thoughtfully and review together.

01

SEND

Understand special educational needs and disabilities, consider strengths and barriers, and identify practical ways to support participation.

02

ADHD

Explore supportive approaches to attention, planning, movement, routines and emotional regulation in everyday learning.

03

Autism

Consider communication, sensory differences, predictability and the child’s own preferences when making inclusive adjustments.

04

Anxiety

Find gentle, practical ways to reduce pressure, build emotional safety and prepare for situations that feel difficult or uncertain.

For families and carers

You know the child in ways no checklist can capture.

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.

A useful first conversation can cover:

  • The child’s strengths, interests and preferred ways to communicate
  • Situations where participation becomes easier or harder
  • Strategies already tried and what happened
  • The next small change that would make a meaningful difference
Start a family enquiry

For schools and educators

Make inclusion visible in everyday practice.

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.

Inclusive practice prompts:

  • Is the instruction clear, manageable and available in more than one form?
  • Can the child show understanding in a way that works for them?
  • Have sensory, communication and transition needs been considered?
  • Is technology reducing a barrier without weakening privacy or agency?
Discuss school support

For practitioners and partners

Connect support with clear boundaries.

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.
