Social Detectives – Social Skills Club for Children with ASC

We are very excited to confirm that we will be running a week long Social Detectives course at The Drive Prep School, in Hove during the summer holidays!
This course is designed for children with ASC and their siblings and we focus on teaching social skills in a fun, flexible and useful way!
The dates are from the 16th -20th August and sessions will run from 9.30-3.30 – with half days available. Please email jasmine@thetlc.org for more information or to register your interest.
What we do:
– We use a structured yet flexible curriculum and teaching process; focusing on social skills development using a ‘social detectives’ model & teaching interactions.
– We choose targets for children to work on based on information given by their parents and caregivers – highlighting areas they find difficult.
– We work on some specific social skills; E.g. How to interrupt, making jokes, initiating and sustaining conversation, empathising, personal space, reading body language, inferences, giving compliments, responding to teasing and being a good friend.
– We build in lots of time for playing games, doing craft and making friends!
