Featuring a range of expert speakers, the first NAS roadshow is in Liverpool on 11 October.
Dr Steve Huggett, Director, Autism Education Trust will be presenting on “Outcomes, standards and good practice with children and young people with autism in the context of the SEN Green Paper”.
Kay Ribbons, an adult with autism from Chester
Kay said: “For me, growing up as a child with autism without a diagnosis was extremely challenging and emotional. Since receiving my diagnosis as an adult it has helped to provide clarity on my younger years and I am now able to come to terms with some of difficulties I faced. I now want raise awareness of growing up with a hidden disability and help other children with autism have a better experience at school and at home.”
With expert speakers, workshops, a stimulating panel debate and plenty of networking opportunities, this event is a great opportunity to gain crucial knowledge about how teachers can best support children with autism.
