Bio
I consider myself a New Zealander who lives in the UK (albeit I was born in London!) For many years I was a nurse then changed careers to become a teacher. I am now Head of the Autism Department in a special needs school in Birmingham. I specailise in working with children with the most challenging behaviours and believe that parents and teachers have to work closely together as a single unit in order for the full potential of their children/my pupils, to be achieved. To this end I run workshops and training programmes for other professionals and parents about autism in all its many and varied guises. When I leave the classroom I want to carry on sharing my skills and ideas with anyone who wants to listen! Hopefully, this blog is the start of something beautiful!!
