Wow what a fantastic turn out for our community coffee morning led by our Year 6 children.

A group of children took charge of food hygiene and cake slicing and then all the students supported clearing and washing up. All great life skills to learn.

Message from LCC

Autistic Spectrum Disorder/Condition is a Neurodevelopmental disorder which is present from birth or early childhood. It impacts on the functioning of the brain and affects a child’s behaviour, memory, or ability to learn.

It can affect the way a person communicates, interacts, and processes information. There is a broad spectrum of presentations, and everyone can present in a different way. It can have a big impact on social and emotional development.

This can leave the individual especially vulnerable to dangers online such as grooming. This document highlights some information sources and support groups for parents to access.
