Our plans for staff training this year include continuing with core training for all staff such as Herts Steps (theraputic behaviour support); Safeguarding; SCERTS (supporting the development of social communication and emotional regulation); Makaton (signing and symbols for communication); PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) and TEACCH (developing independent learning skills).

 

We have also continued to develop staff understanding of specific approaches like Attention Autism, and the development of early and emergent writing and phonics.
