I was most recently employed by a mainstream secondary school in the London Borough of Hackney. My role within this setting was to manage and deliver services to students with SEN within the school. In practice this meant that I had a broad caseload of students who presented with disorders of communication such as ASD, SCLN, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Developmental Language Disorders amongst others. I am now a director of The London Autism Assessment Practice (LAAP), where I regularly undertake multi - disciplinary diagnostic assessments.
