Our Autism Approach
We recognise that people with autism have two main areas of difficulty:
Social Interaction Communication
Addressing communication needs is a fundamental responsibility of every member of our staff.
We acknowledge the importance of getting communication right for individuals and that a person with autism will think and see things differently.
All our staff have a good knowledge of autism and build on this knowledge through training and the implementation of appropriate strategies and techniques.
These strategies and techniques include the following:
To help people with autism understand we use TEACCH, KISS, social stories and communication key rings.
To help people with autism express themselves we use PECS, Makaton, Communication books and Communication dictionaries.
