A half-termly specialist networking opportunity for teaching assistants who have a particular interest in communication & interaction needs, and supporting children and young people with a diagnosis or traits of autism.
The first half of each session will be dedicated to theme-specific input, including resource recommendations, updates, strategies, signposting to training etc.
The second half will then be available for professional networking, where you can share strategies and ideas with colleagues from other schools in Suffolk.

This one-hour session will provide you with a free opportunity to find out more about Makaton and learn a range of signs that you can use to support pupils in school.

During this session, we will explore and share ideas to create an ‘Essential TA Toolkit’. Many teaching assistants carry a set of resources with them, but what is in your pack of essentials and how do you use these to support learning? Come and find out from other TAs and learn how to use some everyday items in creative and effective ways.
