Beyond the Label: Parental strategies for academic support at home
How can I support my child’s learning at home, particularly if they have more than one diagnosis? The evidence-base suggests that as we focus less on their labels and more on essential cognitive functions, we will help them to thrive.
Why choose this course? Parents have said…
- It put a lifetime of learning, bits and pieces, into one coherent and clear picture. A real eye opener, like finding missing pieces to a puzzle you’ve been trying to solve a long time.
- I liked how it was brought back into the home but equally helpful in thinking about how to support them with their work.
- Explanation and understanding of other diagnoses unfamiliar within my 3 SEN boys.
- Seeing how the MH model works by concentrating on the 4 key functions familiar in all SEN pupils.
- Having an educational insight and how that insight can be used at home.
Parent Seminars
At More House School, our wonderful Friends of More House parent and supporters’ association work with us to run fantastic seminars for parents throughout the year on a range of topics. Recent events have covered areas such as supporting mental health, executive function skills and nutrition. These evening or afternoon events have been recorded and are often live-streamed to enable those living far away from the school to attend.
How can I find out about upcoming parent seminars?
The Friends of More House will send out a communication to parents of More House pupils with details of any upcoming seminars, including prices and instructions for how to book tickets.
