Attention Autism is a specialized, 4-stage,, play-based intervention developed by Gina Davies to build attention, communication, and social interaction skills in autistic children. Using "irresistible", visually engaging, and highly motivating activities (like a "bucket" of items), it aims to foster shared attention, turn-taking, and joyful engagement

The school makes the necessary referrals for specialist assessment and, where it deems necessary, for a request for an Education Health Care, EHC, assessment. This can lead to an EHC Plan, above is the timeframe for this process.

Provision of interim enhanced adult support whilst the process runs is extremely limited. However, it may be made at the level to support a pupil's emotional regulation where it disrupts learning.

When an EHCP is in place, personalised assessment arrangements, individual target setting and personalised progress tracking and assessment are managed through an ongoing assess, plan, do and review process that includes annual reviews.

The provision outlined in section F of the EHCPs for all the children with one currently at the school, forms the model of provision at the different banding levels. This is how the school balances a strategic approach to provision and the individual needs of each child.

The school aims to meet as many needs as possible through adaptation of the curriculum planned for the age of the child. However, we accept children as they are and that their stage of development may not be the same as their age. When children are working significantly outside of their chronological year group, teachers need to plan beyond adaptation and differentiation is required. This may require a personalised curriculum where staff draw on the knowledge of teachers with specialist experience and/or qualifications. This NASEN document explains the role of differentiation in current pedagogy.

The workshop style sessions are designed to offer useful information to support families and children/young people to make informed choices and access health and wellbeing information.

School Entry Health Assessment (SEHA)

It is our aim in Newham Children's Health 0-19 to ensure every child has the best start in life to enable them to meet their full potential. One of these aims is to help make your child's transition into school as smooth as possible by working together to achieve this.

www.newham.gov.uk/SEHA

As your child starts to get ready for school it is important that you start to support them in activities they will need to do for themselves when at school, this may seem like a mission impossible, with guidance and support this mission truly is possible. By you supporting and encouraging your child with these independent skills they will be able to start school relaxed, happy and ready to learn. Take a look at our short film where you can see just a few of the skills we use when starting school.

Keep a look out for the 'Ready for school' information sessions advertised  in your local child health clinics, libraries, nurseries and children centres around the borough, where help and advice will be on offer.

Vision and hearing

The Children's Health 0-19 Service offer hearing and vision screening to all reception-aged children (4-5 years) who attend schools in Newham where we are already providing a service.

The programme will be delivered in line with national guidance and clear referral pathways have been agreed with our local partners in health to ensure a seamless approach for those children who are identified as requiring specialist support.

Please find below the information sent to all schools with a reception-aged cohort and the reception screening leaflet for parents.
National Child Measurement Programme Leaflet (PDF)
This programme is in addition to the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP), find out more about the NCMP.

National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP)

What happens in the child measurement programme?
If you have a child in reception (ages four and five) or year six (ages 10 and 11), you will receive a letter from us before your child is measured. On the day, a trained Child Health Practitioner or Child Health Screener will weigh your child and measure their height, in their clothes at school. They'll ensure the measurements are done sensitively and in private, and your child's results will not be shared with teachers or other children.
Why is it important that my child is measured?
This will tell you if your child is in the healthy weight range. If your child is overweight, you can get support from the school health service or local NHS services. Your child doesn't have to take part, but every child measured is contributing to the national picture about how children are growing. The more children who participate, the clearer that picture will be. The information collected helps your local NHS to plan and provide better health services for the children in your area.
How do I find out my child's results?
Parents will automatically be sent their child's results in the post. The letter sent by your local provider before the measurements take place will explain how you will be informed about your child's results. If you're concerned that your child might be underweight or overweight, speak to your GP, School Nurse, who can offer advice and support.

If you do not want your child to participate in the programme, please complete and return the slip provided with the letter you receive from your child's school. Children will not be made to participate if they do not want to.

Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND)

An additional part of the School Health service also provide support to children and young people with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND). As a school health service we are aware of some of the existing barriers within SEND. As a service we work with education and health and social care partners to ensure we overcome these barriers, by adopting a holistic approach to care whilst improving outcomes. If required school nurses also contribute to the formulation of Education Healthcare Plan (EHCP).

We offer support and training to school staff.

Individual Health Care Plans (IHCP)

All children attending schools in Newham receive a universal offer. Children and young people who have been identified as having a long term health condition requiring support in school including support in an emergency situation will have an Individual Health Care Plan (IHCP) or action plan. In addition to this, key members of education staff are offered training (undertaken within the service) in relation to this support.

The Whole School Asthma Approach

The Whole School Asthma Approach is a new and innovative approach to asthma care in schools designed by the Children's Health 0-19 Service in partnership with East London Foundation Trust.

It is recommended that every child and young person who has asthma should have a personal asthma action plan. These should be issued at the point of diagnosis whether that be in a GP, hospital or clinic setting; reviewed annually as a minimum and a copy of the personal asthma action plan should be brought into school. However we know that this isn't always happening, leaving the child or young person in schools without any asthma guidance.

To ensure that the child or young person's schools have asthma guidance, the Children's Health 0-19 Service have designed a School Asthma Action Plan that supports all children and young people in that setting with asthma. Whilst it does not replace a child or young person's personal asthma action plan it is aligned so that either can be used if a child or young person is experiencing asthma symptoms or in an emergency, and used where there is no personal asthma action plan available. To be eligible for the School Asthma Action Plan there is a set of criteria that must be met and maintained to support an asthma friendly environment, this includes an offer of asthma awareness training for your whole workforce.

ChatHealth

The school health service has embraced the use of technology and have a digital platform where young people, aged 11-19 can get confidential advice around health and wellbeing, including but not limited to; emotional health, bedwetting, sleep, sexual health, healthy eating and oral health.

ChatHealth is a confidential text messaging service for 11-19 year olds. It is a quick and easy way for young people to access health advice and support. There will be a qualified nurse responding to messages within 24 hours, Monday to Friday between 09am and 5pm.

Contact no: 07507 326645

Access ChatHealth: www.chathealth.nhs.uk find @NwhmSchHealth

Training for professionals

To support children and young people with medical conditions in school, we offer free awareness training for school professionals. This is to ensure emergency situations can be identified at the earlier point, and the child or young person can receive the appropriate emergency intervention.

Attention Autism (Magic Bag) programme is a daily engaging intervention designed to build natural attention and communication skill through highly motivating and visually stimulating activities.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Attention Autism is a learning approach that aims to develop natural and spontaneous communication skills in children with autism through the use of visually based and highly motivating activities..

The origins of the approach are in the idea that successful communication is dynamic, engaging and joyful. People learn best when they are filled with enthusiasm, motivation and creativity. The Attention Autism approach should provide children with a learning experience that they want to communicate about.

The Aims of Attention Autism:

As well as the ultimate goal of developing natural and spontaneous communication skills in children with autism, there are several other aims that Attention Autism strives to achieve. These include:

To engage attention.

To improve joint attention.

To develop shared enjoyment in group activities.

To increase attention in adult-led activities.

To encourage spontaneous interaction in a natural group setting.

To increase non-verbal and verbal communication through commentary.

To build a wealth and depth of vocabulary.

Most importantly, to have fun in doing so!

The sensory circuit aims to facilitate sensory processing to help children regulate and organise their senses in order to achieve the ‘just right’ or optimum level of alertness required for effective learning

Mental health conditions are problems such as depression, anxiety and eating disorders. Dealing with these problems can be hard so it is important that you get the support you need.

The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) provides outpatient assessments, support and treatment for children and young people up to the age of 18 experiencing moderate to severe mental health problems.

The service works to provide them with a greater knowledge of their condition and improve coping techniques.

We provide help to children and to the wider family, including those with living with foster parents, adopted children and young people living in children's homes. The service may see children and adolescents on their own, with their parents or with their family, and may also see parents on their own.

Typically delivered in small groups, these sessions create a supportive and engaging environment where children can build skills through play, repetition and structured adult guidance.
