Log Twenty Three: Transitions




As an SEN LSA in a primary school I am working one to one with a child who has Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and for me I always go through everyday transitions. I go through a state of mind where I know that I have to slow down my speech for SEN children that will take what you say literally. When a child starts at a new school midway through term, it’s teacher and LSA’s responsibility to identify the transition of moving schools because of a special circumstance e.g. bullying in old school, parents being divorced, new family member. Recently, I have been able to identify numerous children going through different transitions that could affect their educational development so to counter this we encourage a child going through a transition to build positive relationships with their peers. I hope to touch more on this in my inquiry proposal. Thanks for reading.
