Dr David Preece University of Northampton Matriarchal Leadership: Listening to and for the voices of mothers of children with autism. This presentation is particularly focused towards those living and working with more concrete learners. The workshop presenter welcomes all roles and experiences. Puberty and adolescence is a time of great change, and can be extremely challenging for those on the autism spectrum, as well as for those living and working with them. In this presentation, it is suggested that visual supports can help teenagers on the autism spectrum to deal concretely with typical issues regarding the challenges of puberty, including appropriate social interaction, body privacy, personal hygiene and sexual behaviour. The presentation includes examples from the work carried out by David and colleagues in Northamptonshire, as well as from across Europe. This workshop focuses on family literacy and autism and the role of parents as leaders of literacy teaching and learning.

Yu Zhao PhD student and research assistant University of Northampton A child s day at The Puzzle Centre. Best practice in early intervention using the SCERTS framework Becky Ralphs and Ella Millerchip Parents and professionals interested in early years The focus of this workshop is upon the learning experiences of children and young people who are on the autism spectrum during the transition between primary and secondary education. The topic will be explored through six case studies and will consider the ways in which schools facilitate this transition. This workshop demonstrates how the Puzzle Centre supports children with autism and communication difficulties, in early years, to access the Foundation Stage Curriculum. It will demonstrate the importance of how support, both interpersonal and learning support can break down barriers to learning. The topic will be covered through a case study. The aim is for delegates to leave with some practical ideas to support their child.

4 Puzzle Centre Education, support & research for early years autism. PM9 And it's a Go! Road-Tested Strategies that Work in Schools Tricia Laing & Anthea Reid Additionally Resourced Provision for Students with Autism - Preston Manor Upper School Brent, London Ms Tricia Laing Manager of Additionally Resourced Provision for Students with Autism at Preston Manor School. 15 years of experience working with children and young people with autism and other Speech, Language and Communication Needs. Originally trained as a Speech and Language Therapist in America, with experience in mainstream and special schools and healthcare settings. Has been living and working in the UK since 2008, employed initially as the NHS therapist in Preston Manor for 6 years and now as a specialist teacher in the ARP. All Practitioners (Mainstream, Special, Secondary, Primary) & Families Effective techniques that can be implemented in school settings are sometimes hard to find, too complicated to create or are just not feasible within the confines of school life. Two authors with complementary backgrounds in speech and language therapy and specialist teaching share a range of strategies that have been used successfully with autistic students in the mainstream secondary school setting. The tips, tricks and tools use technology and traditional methods for supporting self-awareness, problem-solving skills, focus and engagement, communication and social/emotional/mental health. All strategies can be replicated by school professionals - mainstream subject teachers, SEN teachers, speech and language therapists, learning support assistants or even parents/carers for use at home. Good ideas should be shared. These techniques have been implemented, adapted and perfected for students with varying ability over several years in the classroom, in small group intervention, in 1:1 lessons, in the canteen or playground and in the community. Come along for a quick journey that highlights these road-tested strategies. Ms Anthea Reid: Acting Manager of Additionally Resourced Provision for Students with Speech, Language & Communication Needs at Preston Manor School. 14 years of experience working with children and young people with Autism and other SEND. Originally trained as a secondary English teacher in New Zealand, but have

Parents and professionals. Parents or professionals, looking at the impact specifically in education but relevant to all age ranges. The rise in the number of children with an autism diagnosis has created a great demand and interest amongst parents in becoming more informed about the condition. This workshop will explore the variety of formats and methods that can be used to deliver training and information that can be a vital lifeline to parents coming to terms and trying to deal with autism in their daily home lives. The determination of appropriate topics to address and prioritisation of resources are areas that will also be looked into in this workshop. The demand avoidant presentation of autism is very real yet continues to cause disagreement among professionals when it comes to diagnosis. This workshop looks at the history of PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) and argues that, regardless of what we call it, seeking to prevent and manage it is key to the inclusion of those with the condition
