ONLINE TRAINING FROM SEPTEMBER

FULL RANGE OF TRAINING IN THE SPECIFIC NEEDS OF A CHILD WITH DOWN SYNDROME

From September 2025 we will be offering our full range of training covering

  • Introduction to Down syndrome,
  • Signing & Dwon syndrome,
  • Teaching basic number skills,
  • Teaching time and money,
  • Using visuals to teach speech, language, communication and literacy skills,
  • Reading language intervention,

 

Each topic will be interspersed with a one hour online group consultation session.

 

There are 22 sessions in total and these can be booked individually at £5 per session or as a bundle for £80.

 

Our aim is for the sessions to run weekly on a Wednesday morning from September 2025, 10am to 11am during term time.

 

WORKSHOPS

In addition we will continue to deliver our workshops on behaviour, toileting and sexuality relationships education—these will be 2 hour sessions over several weeks and places will be limited.

 

AIMING TO BETTER MEET SCHOOL STAFF AVAILABILITY

We hope that offering our training in this way will enable more schools to access the training needed to fully educate and include a child with Down syndrome. Acting on feedback it will remove the time for travel and enable schools to better plan cover.

 

We are happy to receive feedback on this as we wish to be as flexible as possible.
