#TEACHERS - do you know about autism & masking?

Lana identifies the meaning of the term ‘masking’- when & why it may be used & the power of working with parents/caregivers.

@LanaGrantAutism will present at The Virtual SEND Conference on 21 May 👉 https://t.co/8e1KHaadXM #ASD

Tim lost 3 school years in total over his school and college career! All down to incompetence in process management or inability to his meet needs.

Post Ofsted @WalsallCouncil want us to draw a line under our experiences. This is deeply insulting! Our son was broken, not once but 3 times! His life has been changed irrevocably The LA need to acknowledge, accept it and be accountable for it. Maybe then we can move on!

[Paula Holden @PMummy]

@SylviaLouise6 You think you are doing your best for your kids! It was such a hard decision!

[Paula Holden @PMummy]

Feeling the devastation of knowing, that The Priory isn't the only shocking Inpatient CAMHS Unit. #thatparent #exposure #wetrusted #teenagementalhealth #personalexperience

@TenaciousRk Oh boy, parents are making a noise! That’s why the LA advertise jobs for caseworkers to work with difficult parents! What the Guardian means is that parents voices are insignificant!

[Paula Holden @PMummy]

The negative attitude towards parents really does astounds me sometimes!!

[RK Tenacious @TenaciousRk]

Actually I think lots of people are making a noise.
When parents make a noise they are often heard as individual voices though.
We need more school leaders to stand beside us.
