Description

Positive Partnerships and AISWA Sector-led Professional Learning Program

We are excited to announce the Inclusive Education team will be running the Positive Partnerships two-day professional learning program.

We will explore:

• Evidence-informed knowledge of autism and how it directly impacts on a young person’s learning and participation.
• Effective strategies to help maximise a young person’s learning in the school and home environment.
• Understanding the support needs of young autistic people and their families’ experiences at home and school.

This free workshop is funded by the Australian Government Department of Education, Skills and Employment. As part of the agreement, it is a government stipulation that each school must send two teachers to the workshop. We encourage schools to send staff who are new to teaching autistic students or those who would benefit from additional training in the Autism space. Schools will be eligible for $500, GST inclusive, of teacher resource support funding for each pair of participating teachers upon attendance at both workshop days.

Expression of Interest

If you are interested in attending, each participant must complete this registration as an expression of interest. Selected participants, who meet eligibility, will receive a link to the Positive Partnerships registration page where they can register and get access to the pre-workshop modules.
