Autism Series for SNAs and Teachers

Welcome to the Autism Series: A Compassionate and Practical Approach for SNAs and Teachers, a comprehensive professional development series designed to equip educators with the knowledge, language, and tools to better support autistic learners in inclusive educational settings.
This 10-part series is built on the foundation of empathy, evidence-based practice, and a deep commitment to student voice. Each webinar is thoughtfully aligned with best practice guidance from the NCSE Relate Programme and the Department of Education’s Understanding Behaviours of Concern document. These resources remind us that behaviour is a form of communication, emotional regulation is relational, and proactive support is key.
Autism is not a problem to be fixed—it’s a different way of experiencing the world. This series encourages educators to look beyond challenges and see the strengths, preferences, and needs of every child. It explores topics such as meltdowns, trauma, communication, executive function, and inclusion—always through the lens of relationship, respect, and regulation.
Whether you're a seasoned Special Needs Assistant, a classroom teacher, or a school leader, this series offers practical strategies you can apply immediately, while also inviting deeper reflection on your role as a compassionate advocate.

  • Autistic Meltdowns: Understanding, Preventing, Responding
