Experience and knowledge of the impact of, and approaches to working with autistic children, along with experience of working with children who have complex needs such as sensory/communication difficulties and clinical needs is important.
You will be able to communicate effectively with children and build caring, positive relationships with them and their families, to enable children to achieve their potential.
