Amanda Hind Autism Training and Consultancy

I have a unique perspective: I am mum to two autistic young adults, I'm autistic myself, and I teach autistic children.
I am passionate about high-quality support and education for autistic people. 
I am an experienced teacher - I have worked in primary, secondary and special schools, and alternative provisions. In my last  school (mainstream secondary) I led the autism provision and was Deputy SENCO. In my current school (secondary) I am the SENCO. 
I am studying part-time for a PhD in Psychology, and have carried out some research which I hope to publish. 

My aims are:
1) to help parents and professionals understand more about what autism is really like, so they have increased knowledge and insight into how to support and educate autistic people
2) to support autistic teenagers and adults, by helping them understand themselves and how their autism affects them; and by providing a mentoring service specifically by an autistic person for autistic people
