Module overview

This module will provide an appropriate introduction to working with CYP with Autism and Learning Disability. CWPs/EMHPs will need to extend low intensity support where a child or young person has autism, ADHD or a learning disability. They will develop an understanding of the core features of Autism, Learning Disabilities and associated conditions. They will also need knowledge of relevant legislation, medical and social models of disability and practice as well as the types of reasonable adjustments required in practice to meet the needs of this group. They will learn to deliver effective low intensity interventions with this client group.
