School is so difficult for your child. They don't want to go and when you get them there they won't engage. Or maybe they do go but the fall out at the end of the school day is horrendous. Their anxiety is so high they are constantly on edge, they aren't sleeping well, they aren't eating well and they are having frequent meltdowns. School has suggested an EHCP (or maybe your child already has one) but no one is listening to you and the focus seems to be largely about getting your child back to school and into the classroom. You are beginning to realise that school might actually be the problem but can home education be the answer?  Your child seems slightly more relaxed at home on those days when they don't make it to school but you remember home schooling during lockdown and it didn't go well.  Is it possible that you can educate your child at home? Is it even legal and can you do it without an EHCP or EOTAS? And is there a way that your child can both learn, develop, and grow at the same time as reducing their anxiety?  Dr Naomi Fisher, clinical psychologist and home educating parent to two Self Directed Learners, and Heidi Steel, qualified teacher and parent to four always unschooled learners, share their professional and personal experiences of learning without school in this webinar on how you are the best person to support for your autistic child.  This 50 minute webinar is useful for those with or without a formal diagnosis.
