Services & Support

  • SOI Learning Profile Assessments

    An SOI Learning Profile Assessment looks at the different abilities involved in learning, thinking and processing information. It can help identify a person’s strengths, as well as areas that may be making learning, concentration, memory or problem-solving more difficult.

    Following the assessment, families receive a clear, parent-friendly report, practical recommendations and a feedback session to help them understand the results and consider the next steps.

    An SOI assessment does not provide a diagnosis.

    Staff & Professional Training

    We provide practical, accessible training for SENCOs, teachers, teaching assistants, family support workers, social care teams and other professionals supporting autistic and ADHD children, young people and families.

    Training can be tailored to the needs of your service and may cover executive functioning, sensory processing, emotional regulation, behaviour, communication and practical support strategies.

    We work collaboratively with the wider team so that learning is not held by one member of staff. The aim is to build shared understanding, consistent approaches and practical changes that the whole team can carry forward after the training.

    Children’s Psychoeducation

    Our children’s psychoeducation sessions help children and teenagers understand themselves in a positive, age-appropriate way.

    Sessions explore areas such as individual strengths, autism and ADHD, executive functioning, sensory needs, emotions, communication and self-advocacy.

    The aim is to help young people recognise what they find difficult, understand why certain situations may feel harder, and learn practical ways to manage everyday challenges.

    Support is strengths-based and focuses on building confidence, self-understanding and the ability to explain what support they need.

    Funded Family Support

    Our funded family support provides free, practical guidance for parents and carers who are trying to understand their child’s needs and work out what may help.

    Support may include online learning sessions, local groups, community projects and parent-friendly information about autism, ADHD, executive functioning, sensory needs, emotions and behaviour.

    Funded support is available when grants or project funding allow. Places may be limited, but families can join from Coventry and Warwickshire, with many online sessions available nationwide.
