A child or young person is said to have additional support needs (ASN) if they need additional support with their education. Additional support can mean any kind of educational provision that is more than, or very different from, the education that is normally provided in mainstream schools.
A child or young person may need additional support for a number of different reasons:
- Difficulties with mainstream approaches to learning
- Disability or health needs, such as motor or sensory impairment, learning difficulties or autistic spectrum disorder
- Family circumstances such as young people who are carers or parents
The Aberdeenshire Education and Childrens Services ASN website provides information on the services and support that are available for children and young people who have additional support needs.
