About this event

Learning Support Coordinators (LSCs) interested in strengthening their confidence and capability in specific practice areas are invited to register now for PLD starting in Term 4:

  • Tilting the Seesaw for Learning Support Coordinators – Autism New Zealand.
  • Kete into Practice – FASD‑CAN (Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder – Care Action Network).

This PLD is designed for LSCs who are:

  • in‑school or cluster‑based
  • seeking to build understanding of neurodiversity and trauma‑informed practice
  • supporting learners with complex learning, behavioural or regulatory needs.

Registration is now open for courses starting in Term 4.

As schools begin planning for 2027 and considering LSC recruitment to fill their new allocations, they may wish to recommend this PLD, alongside the PLD on the LSC pathway– Induction and Role Essentials – to those appointed to the role.

Completing the LSC induction beforehand is strongly encouraged but not a pre-requisite for this PLD. More information, including how to register, is included in this fact sheet:
