Every young person is different. We need to get to know them to support them effectively.

Understanding some key areas related to autistic people's independence, strengths and support needs is important.

Story Circle

Our young autistic people are all different. This circle helps us to think about six areas that are important in understanding their strengths and support needs.

These strengths and support needs can look different at home, in the community and at school.


My Child's Storyboard

The Storyboard is used to gather a child’s individual story and it links to the My Child's Story Circle template. 

The Storyboard helps gather all the relevant information about your child and this can be shared with others that support them. The information can help you and others understand the different strengths and support needs of your child and the impacts of these. It provides an opportunity for you to identify strategies based on these strengths and support needs.
