Autism and Transitions
This session will examine why students experience difficulties when faced with a transition to Pre, Primary and Post Primary School and discuss how developing a greater understanding of transition, with practical approaches to support students on their journey through school and beyond, offers the child or young person the chance of future academic and social success.
Within this session, the importance and design of a planned transition programme will be examined along with ideas and suggestions as to how to best prepare not only the education setting but also the parents and student.
Participants will:
- Recognise the reasons behind the difficulties autistic students may face during transitions
- Acknowledge the importance of planning and strategising for key transitions in the child or young person's daily routine
- Develop straightforward transition plans and supports around key areas.
- Gain an understanding of available support during transition.
- Understand the benefits of providing personalised support to children and young people
- Learn techniques to manage emotional distress, such as stress and anxiety, which may arise from transitions.
