Families for Inclusive Education - Online Learning Workshop for Parents

This is an online day-time workshop

CRU, with the support of the QLD Department of Education, presents this workshop for parents and family members of a student with a disability.

This online workshop is being presented by Ann Greer who is a parent to two adults with disability, an ex-service manager and a highly regarded presenter. She has two decades' experience working alongside people with 'challenging behaviour".

Ann will encourage workshop participants to understand what might influence their child’s behaviour at school, and how families can advocate for more positive approaches. Topics covered will include:

Understandings of “challenging behaviour”
Communication and its role in behaviour – what gets missed?
Understanding approaches that are likely to assist or hinder students with disability to do better
Avoiding punishments and developing proactive approaches

Please register as soon as possible to receive a link to a video presentation for viewing prior to the session to maximise learning. The session will involve additional input by Ann and question time.

Participants are encouraged to submit questions after viewing the video, though other questions may be asked if time is available.

Given the sensitivity of this workshop please note that it will not be recorded.
