This 6-hour Teacher PD workshop is based on our Tilting the Seesaw programme and is a combination of strength-based, practical strategies to support the everyday inclusion of autistic children in the classroom setting. This workshop focuses on well - being and learning potential within the school environment and aims to unite education professionals in an educational, safe and supportive setting, for the benefit of the Tamariki. This workshop is for teachers and teaching professionals working in a classroom setting.
