13. Using the AASH: Understanding the Patterns Beyond the Scores 

A reflective and practice-based workshop exploring how sensory and developmental history can deepen school-based reasoning. 

 
Use sensory and developmental history more meaningfully to strengthen school-based formulation and planning. 

This workshop explores how sensory and developmental history can deepen school based assessment and formulation. It supports participants to move beyond collecting background information and instead use history to understand current strengths, patterns, emotional safety, routines, and participation challenges in more meaningful ways. school-based

Learning outcomes 
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to: 

1. Explain how sensory history can strengthen school-based assessment and formulation 
2. Identify meaningful themes within developmental, sensory, and functional history 
3. Discuss how history links to present-day school participation and unmet need 
4. Reflect on how history taking is currently used in their own work 
5. Leave better able to use AASH information to enrich reasoning rather than simply collect facts 

1. Participants will learn it through teaching on sensory and developmental history, discuss it in tutor groups, apply it to school-based reasoning, reflect on how they currently use background information, and take it back into practice through deeper formulation.
