Child Psychology, Autism & Dyslexia Awareness Level 5 - QLS Endorsed

Thames College

Did you know that nearly 10% of children in the UK face learning difficulties due to dyslexia?

Child psychology, autism, and dyslexia are critical fields in understanding the cognitive, emotional, and behavioural patterns of children. These areas play a vital role in addressing the unique needs of children and ensuring they receive the support required to thrive.

Over 20,000 job openings annually in education and healthcare require expertise in child psychology, autism, or dyslexia.

This comprehensive course combines three essential domains—child psychology, autism awareness, and dyslexia understanding—to provide a well-rounded education that equips learners with knowledge and skills to assist children effectively.

• Child psychology explores the various stages of development, enabling individuals to interpret how a child’s environment, relationships, and upbringing shape their behaviour and mental well-being.
• Autism awareness focuses on understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), its challenges, and strategies for fostering inclusive environments for individuals with autism.
• Dyslexia awareness addresses the learning difficulties associated with this condition and highlights ways to provide effective support.

This course brings together theoretical knowledge and actionable skills that are relevant across educational, healthcare, and caregiving professions. With an emphasis on early identification and intervention, learners will gain insights into how to work collaboratively with families, educators, and healthcare professionals to create meaningful change in children’s lives. From recognising developmental milestones to exploring the impacts of attachment, separation, and learning difficulties, the curriculum ensures learners have a thorough understanding of the topics. With increasing societal awareness and the prevalence of autism (estimated at 1 in 100 children) and dyslexia (affecting around 10% of the population), this course equips learners to address real-world challenges effectively and compassionately.

By completing this course, learners will enhance their employability in fields such as special education, child counselling, and support work. Additionally, they will gain the tools to create inclusive and supportive environments for children with diverse needs.
