Middletown Centre for Autism Workshops in Scoil Ruáin
The Management of Scoil Ruain invited Middletown Centre for Autism, Armagh, to come to Killenaule to provide training in Autism studies to both Professionals and Parents over a 5- week period. We felt very privileged, as the course facilitators were extremely passionate about their chosen fields. The courses were heavily subscribed to and were indeed a great success. People attended from around the county and from neighbouring counties also. Middletown have been involved in delivering courses in Northern Ireland for the past 10 years. The facilitators have been working with families and schools to promote a greater understanding and awareness of the challenges that children and adolescents face and what supports can be put in place to create Autism Friendly Schools.
