Case Study 1

Student A – Aged 16

Needs Overview
– SLD
– Behaviours that challenge
– Autism
– CLA Section 20

On admission
Student A only attended school for 2 or 3 hours a day and regularly had to be collected early. Studied in isolation, supported 3:1 in school, only experienced a limited curriculum. No therapeutic support and unable to access CAHMS or other services.

Today it’s a very different picture
Attends school full time with access to the whole curriculum.

Full programme of therapy support in place integrated into PBS plan, including SALT, OT and Behaviour Therapy.

This has reduced behaviours that challenge and increased engagement in learning.

Now supported 1:1 and enjoys regular enrichment, including swimming, museum visits, shopping and using public transport.
