The Every Child Matters (ECM) green paper identified the five outcomes that are most important to children and young people: Be Healthy, Stay Safe, Enjoy and Achieve, Make a Positive Contribution, Achieve Economic Well Being.

To move toward these outcomes, ASD students need specialist counselling and pastoral care that understands their very special needs. Delegates will benefit from this opportunity to gain a real understanding of those needs and be provided with a range of approaches that will enable them to make a positive difference to the school experience for these students.
