Free downloadable resources for parents and teachers

We have a range of FREE booklets for parents and teachers. These guides are a ‘taster’ of what can be found within the full EPIC Think Learn subscriber platform. We hope that you find them useful for understanding and helping your child. Simply choose which is the most relevant to you, click the ‘Access Booklet’ button to download the booklet, and then save it to your device. Once you have read the ‘Understanding Strengths and Difficulties’ booklet, completed some activities and discussed them with your child these can be used as a base for discussions. After this, you should then look at the strategy guide below.

Get started with the webinar below which explains more about the EPIC approach and covers key concepts and evidence from what we call a neurodiversity affirmative approach, which is what EPIC follows.

After that, if you’re unsure which is most applicable, scroll down to the ‘Understanding the Strengths and Difficulties
of Neurodivergent Children’ booklet and start there.

We welcome feedback on our resources: please contact us with any comments.
