What next can be a scary question to ask as a parent of a child with neurodiverse needs. During this webinar we will be focusing on puberty - talking about how best to approach tricky conversations and different ways to support behaviour during this time. We will also be discussing and looking at what happens after school and how best to support!

In this workshop you will experience what it is like to be dyslexic and learn how to spot the signs of dyslexia. You will be introduced to the stages of assessment, the role of the school and your role as a carer. You will have the opportunity to try some of the resources available to support a student with dyslexia through the different stages of education. By the end of the workshop you will have a better understanding of dyslexia and what can be incorporated to enhance the learning of a dyslexic student.
