Special Needs section on CBeebies website

[beccaboo]

Has anyone else spotted that there's a special needs section on the cbeebies website? In the 'grownups' section. Amongst other things there's an interesting feature by a mother of an autistic son.

Sorry for my lack of link savvy -

thanks for that....have printed it off as i think the parenting group i attend will find it very useful!

here we go

I've just read the feature about autism and thought it was very sensitively written- realistic but positive at the same time which is no mean feat!

Its a really good section, the whole SN bit and it looks so nice! The ASD bit is written by someone at DS's school (can't say I know her, there's so many of them).

Thanks for that link. it gave me a lot of practical advice for my ds.Although he doesnt have a lot of behavioural problems, the tantrums and speech problems are the worst.

I thought that feature might be good to give to grandparents too - quite concise.
