Event Details
This informative short course has been designed for parents and carers who have a basic understanding of dyslexia and want to further develop their knowledge. During the session, delegates will further develop their understanding and knowledge of dyslexia and dyspraxia.
You will leave with reassuringly uncomplicated strategies and activities to stimulate and aid development. By the end of this workshop you will have:
- More knowledge and understanding about dyslexia and dyspraxia.
- Develop an understanding of the key interventions and strategies available.
- Worked through a selection of case studies to further develop your understanding of how to implement these strategies at home.
The strategies are not diagnostic tools, and you will not be able to gain a diagnosis from this session.
Workshop leader Karen Ferguson is the Founder and Principal Trainer for Linrow Education. Karen started teaching science at a mainstream secondary school in 2000. She then moved into the SEND environment working with children and parents to help them overcome their disabilities and give them the skills to achieve their full potential. Karen was appointed as a Specialist Leader in Education for Autism and this allowed her to disseminate good practice and deliver SEND training. She offers various condition specific training, including ASC, ADHD and Dyslexia.
Karen has continued her personal professional development over the years: she has a Masters Degree in Education and Level 2 Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism and PDA qualifications. She is currently working towards her Doctorate in Education.
Karen believes that a better understanding of SEND and complex needs can be achieved through information sharing and is committed to ensuring that quality education is available to all.
The strategies are not diagnostic tools, and unfortunately you will not be able to gain a diagnosis from this session.
This session will take place via the Zoom virtual platform, delegates will be sent access codes/ links prior to the virtual sessions.
