ABA Horizons believes every child can learn. Especially when given the right tools and support. Despite if they learn differently from you and I. We strive to help young people on the spectrum to maximise their potential.

Based on the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis, we provide high quality, individualised services. We increase effective learning by reducing barriers that prevents learning. We teach functionally equivalent skills to replace behaviours that may challenge.

Merton SEND Information, Advice and Support service

Description of service offered:

Merton SEND IAS provides free impartial support, advice and training to parents of children with special educational needs and those at risk of exclusion.

We aim to help parents and carers to be able to participate and make informed choices. We can provide parents and carers with practical support in terms of attendance at meetings, assistance in writing representations, school visits and local disagreement resolution.

The Service works closely with schools, local voluntary groups and the local authority to help develop positive relationships with parents and carers and in so doing reduce exclusion, raise pupil achievement and parental confidence.

Connexions PA’s are also based within the service and able to give advice to young people and their families. In addition to this we have close links with the Choice Adviser.
