Specialist Provision for Social and Communication Needs including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

At our setting, we offer a nurturing and inclusive environment tailored to support children from P1-P7 who have a statement of social and communication needs {including those children with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)}.

Our provision is designed to:

  • Foster communication and interaction through structured, personalised approaches.
  • Support emotional regulation and social understanding using evidence-based strategies.
  • Create a safe, predictable environment that reduces anxiety and promotes confidence.
  • Encourage independence and life skills through targeted interventions and routines.
  • Ensure inclusivity by creating and supporting opportunities for our children to be engaged in appropriate whole school/class activities 
  • Collaborate closely with families and professionals to ensure holistic support and progress.

We celebrate each learner’s individuality and work to unlock their potential through a flexible, child-centred approach. Our team is trained in autism-specific strategies and committed to creating opportunities for meaningful learning and connection.
