Inclusion Ambassadors

Autumn 1 update 

This year we have adapted the role of Pupil SEND ambassadors to Pupil Inclusion Ambassadors to look at both special education needs and children's emotional wellbeing. We have two Pupil Inclusion Ambassadors this year who are Emily (Cairo) and Penny (Lima) and they are both looking forward to getting started with their job. This week in assembly I shared information from the National Autistic Society all about autism. I spoke to the children about how autism can be hidden and how autism means that someone's brain works a little differently to others and that is ok. We looked at videos to help identify how autistic people may present and discussed how we might support classmates who are autistic. I hope that this assembly helps the children to understand some of the challenges an autistic person may go through when at school and how they can support. I will share the links for the videos shown in the powerpoints on the website over half term for parents to access.

Amazing Things Happen - by Alexander Amelines

Autumn 2 update 

This half term our focus was on ADHD which stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. Our amazing inclusion Ambasadors created an assembly to share what ADHD is and how we can support our peers with ADHD. In key stage 1 we shared the book Austin has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. In key stage 2 we shared a video with the children which you can see below and we also looked at celebrities who have ADHD. The aim of these assemblies was to highlight again some challenges people with ADHD can face as well as how both staff and other children can support them. Next term we will focus on mental health in our assemblies.
