Free Autism training

Free Autism training is available via the Autism Education Trust (AET), a not-for-profit organisation supported by the Department of Education.   

Warwickshire County Council is a training partner with AET and delivers quality assured training to make a difference to autistic pupils in our schools.  Making Sense of Autism training takes around 1.5 hours.  Once staff have completed this training, they can then access the Good Autism Practice module, providing guidance on processes and tools to support autistic pupils.  

We can now also offer an Anxiety Module, to help schools support autistic pupils to reduce and manage their anxiety, and an Exclusions Module to support the prevention of exclusions.  There are lots of free resources on the AET website to support with peer awareness, working with parents, evaluating practice to name just a few.
