Autism Treatment Trust  

Registered Charity Number SCO033523

Design: LA/ATT

We believe that appropriate behavioural support to children with autism is an essential component of a synergistic intervention programme. The term “behaviour” is to be taken in the broadest sense, covering all aspects of behaviour, including language and communication and other skills the child may display. By behavioural support we aim to reinforce the development of socially meaningful behaviours whilst acknowledging the child’s developing personality. We would aim to teach new skills in different learning contexts, ranging from child-led play to more focused structured work as appropriate. A key focus of our intervention is to show a positive, accepting, attentive and encouraging attitude towards children with autism.  ATT Learning involves the expertise of a psychologist with expertise in Applied Behaviour Analysis.  

 

ATT Learning staff can provide individual home visits to give in depth advice on priority issues as required by each individual family unit. We can also visit your child’s school to support the development of skills and advise on structuring of the environment to maximise the potential for learning. ATT Learning staff supervises highly individualised full or part time home teaching programmes based on the guiding principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis/Verbal Behaviour (ABA/VB), including the transition of learning from home to school.
