Welcome to an engaging training session specifically designed for primary school staff! Today, we delve into the world of Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) and how to effectively support children who exhibit this challenging behaviour.

PDA is a profile on the autism spectrum characterised by extreme avoidance of everyday demands. Understanding this condition can be a game-changer for both educators and students alike. Throughout our time together, we will explore the practical strategies that make a difference in the classroom. We’ll focus on the PANDA approach from the PDA Society, which provides a framework for better understanding and responding to pupils with PDA.

So, whether you’re new to this topic or looking to deepen your knowledge, this session is for you! We aim to equip you with the tools needed to create a more inclusive environment, ensuring that every child feels understood and supported. Let’s work together to make a positive impact on the lives of our students with PDA, enhancing their learning experiences and fostering a sense of belonging in our schools. Join us for an informative and interactive discussion that promises to spark new ideas and insights!
