Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC) and learning
Our latest module focuses on Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC) and learning. Below you will find links to videos introducing the topic of ASC and learning, how to create autism-aware learning environments and some of the top activities to help students with ASC develop their skills for learning.
There are videos for each phase of education, including the 0-5 early years phase, the primary school phase (5-11), and the secondary and post-16 phase (11-18).
You can earn a certificate for completing this training module, and also help guide the training we make in the future, by kindly completing our online evaluation form.

Early Years Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) module
We have two playlists for educators, parents and caregivers of children in the Early Years (0-5) phase of education. Both playlists cover the same topics. The first playlist has longer form videos (5-9 minutes) and the second playlist has videos in bitesize form (less than 60 seconds).
We hope you find these videos useful. Please use our feedback form to let us know what we need to improve and what we are doing well.
