Information and Transition Planning
North Tipperary Development Company under their Social Inclusion and Community Activation Programme are funding a Transition Programme for parents of children who are on the Spectrum and who are currently in 5th and 6th Class and who will be transitioning to secondary school in either September 2022 or September 2023. The aim of the programme is to prepare parents and children for the challenges involved in moving from primary school to secondary and devising a “Pathway for Positive Transition to Post Primary” to ease this transition.

If you are the parent/guardians of a child presenting on the spectrum who will be moving into secondary school in either September 2022 and 2023 and resident in North Tipperary, this workshop is for you. As our programme has been reviewed for the coming two years, work with SICAP and children on the spectrum will not be available from January 2022, so I strongly advise parents who need this service avail of it this year, even though their child may not enter secondary school until September 2023.

If parents wish to avail of a place, please text 087 9280755 with your name, mobile number and primary school your child is attending to reserve a place asap

Children often show emotional distress in different ways to adults which can make it difficult for adults around them to understand what is going on. Things can get even more complex and confusing when a child has a learning disability because it can be difficult to figure out what is going on and even more difficult for the child to communicate their thoughts and feelings.

This 40 page booklet has been created to help those working with children and young people with learning disabilities to support mental health and wellbeing. How do you know when something is wrong and what do you do about it?

"Children and adults with learning disabilities are not exempt from experiencing mental health problems. In fact, children with learning disabilities are at much greater risk of having mental health problems than the general population.

Children and adolescents with learning disabilities are over six times more likely to have a diagnosable psychiatric disorder than their peers who do not have learning disabilities."
