The population of children and young people with intellectual and developmental disabilities is growing with many more living with complex multi-morbidities. Due to their complexity of need children and young people with complex intellectual and developmental disabilities require access to practitioners across education, healthcare and social care who have a shared knowledge of their complex needs and the shared interventions and approaches necessary to meet them in the future. This is important as no single profession possess this knowledge and skills at the moment. This project therefore aims to develop a shared on-line learning module focusing on the policy, research and best practice in meeting the education, health and social work needs of these children and young people. The objectives of the project are to scope and critically analyse policy, research and best practice evidence from national;European and international sources to identify the extent of the needs of children and young people with complex intellectual and developmental disabilities; the involvement of academics from the partner universities, students and practitioners from education, health and social work services to scope out and identify the content of the shared learning module to ensure that it meets expectations and future service needs. The project will work with technologists to design and build the shared module content and assessment and pilot and test the effectiveness; the collaborations between the partner universities in the on-going delivery of the shared module with students from education, nursing and social work. An iterative methodology will be used that involves literature identification and analysis, workshops and interactive sessions between academics, students and practitioners to identify future needs, best practice and module content and assessment, design and piloting of the learning module and implementation of the learning module across the five partner universities with cohorts of students from education, nursing and social work supported by academics . Student involvement will be through participation in an Erasmus Intensive programme. It is anticipated that the results will set out the evidence of the range of needs of children and young people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their complexity of needs that will inform the content of the shared learning module that will be delivered collaboratively by the five partner universities as part of a longer term work programme focusing on further shared learning modules, publications and research.
