Welcome to ABA Preschool Academy
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a safe and caring environment for your children. We want to promote independence on all levels and increase the learners’ self confidence in a fun and enjoyable environment.
Our teaching methods are based on Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) which is a method that has become the intervention of choice for many parents of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). ABA is not a method of teaching but a way of establishing clear learning paths and breaking them into small achievable goals that are continuously monitored and changed accordingly to ensure success.
Children with autism may have difficulty with speech and communication, and with understanding social interactions. Also there may be behavioural problems related to these difficulties. ABA interventions can improve the quality of life for a person with autism – and the family – by teaching speech or communication skills, helping them to get their needs met without behaving in a way that upsets them. ABA Preschool Academy develops Individualised Educational Plans (IEP) tailored specifically to your child’s development.
Enrolment
Based in our locations in Shankill and Tallaght, ABA Preschool Academy is an educational centre for preschool children with autism and related disorders.
Parents wishing to enrol their children should make preliminary enquiries using the contact form on this website.
Waiting lists are in operation for schools and places are allocated on a first come first served basis. Once a place has been offered parents are welcome to come and visit our school.
Parents can apply for full funding to the Department of Education and Skills under the Home Tuition Grant. We would be more than happy to talk you through this process or if you just need general information or support feel free to get in touch and we would be happy to help any way we can.
