Lynn's Story
I’m Lynn McCann and I’m the specialist teacher who loves to support anyone to understand their autistic, ADHD and PDA students
Reachout ASC is a team of specialist teachers with many year’s experience and expertise. We work with children of all ages, making school better for them.
- We understand what teachers are going through because we have all been there, in the classroom, and understand all the pressures and targets that are put upon you.
- We know you are not given enough training to support all the student’s needs in your class.
- We understand parents because we are parents of autistic children and children with other additional needs.
- We understand our students because some of us are autistic and some of us have ADHD.
- We understand what our students are going through because we make our first priority to listen to them, giving them the communication tools they need to be able to tell us what school and being autistic is like for them.
"Crammed full of really useful advice & resources to help us prepare for the next steps in these uncertain times"

"First Class"
W Phillips
"Fabulous"
Not only am I a LSA in a Secondary School but a mum to a son who is going to Sixth Form. I love the way you approached this from all angles, from parents teachers, support staff and most importantly our young people too.
S Powers
"Thought provoking"
Great resources, which will be really useful with all students. It also highlights perhaps some areas that we may have forgotten about whilst being in our own bubbles at home or even as some of us have been working, it is easy to forget how it has been for others.
F Lewis
"Invaluable"
Invaluable course if you want to learn more about autism. Anxiety is something that they may suffer from everyday and we need to know the signs to help them before they are on empty. I will revisit this course again as it is full of useful information, hints and tips.
C Henderson
"Very thought provoking and excellent videos"
I really enjoyed this course, it was very thought provoking and there were lots of practical strategies to take away. I really enjoyed the video on autism and joy - very funny, moving and inspiring. The trainer covered a lot of different scenarios as well.
C Doyle
"Thought provokingly brilliant "
Even if you think you have it all under control, you haven't! This course is so informative and covers absolutely everything you have to think about ensuring the best possible return to the school community for everyone.

"Fantastic SEND knowledge"

Preparing for September for all children
Loved the short chunks. Gave me food for thought of how I can make transition back to school less stressful for all the children who may have difficulties processing what has happened and what is different. Preparation is key, so tomorrow the lists will be written for all the jobs that need to be completed ready for September. Hopefully the transition back will be a little smoother for our most vulnerable pupils.
