My areas of special interests are working with children and young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Language Disorder associated with additional medical needs.
I am constantly striving to develop my skills. I have completed post qualification training in Makaton, Shape Coding and Social Thinking.
I am currently working with primary-aged pupils with ASD in an Additionally Resourced Provision (ARP) within a mainstream school and as well as in a special primary school which caters for children experiencing difficulties with Communication and Interaction.
My greatest passion is ensuring that a child or young person reaches their full potential with their speech, language and communication. I strongly believe that working collaboratively with parents, school staff and all other professionals is key to ensuring a child’s or young person’s progress.
