Drumbeat Outreach is a team of teachers and specialist advisers offering support, advice and training to children, families and professionals in Lewisham. We work across all mainstream educational settings, including Early Years, Primary and Secondary schools, and Post Sixteen provisions. Schools and Colleges can buy in support from the Outreach Team through a Service Level Agreement (SLA).

We run two licensed Earlybird and Cygnet courses for the parents of children newly diagnosed on the autism spectrum. These courses run over a number of weeks and are facilitated by multi-disciplinary teams within Drumbeat and in collaboration with our partners in health.

We also run parent workshops and drop in groups across the school year in schools, children's centres and at Drumbeat.
