An introduction to FASD for primary and secondary school teachers and others working in schools. No knowledge of FASD is required. 

In this introductory workshop, we will be exploring:

• How does prenatal alcohol exposure affect the brain?
• An overview of common features of FASD.

2. Supporting children and young people with FASD in schools 

• Classrooms, curriculum and the playground.

This is an interactive workshop and you will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Participants will be given resources to download.
