Flash games

I work at a special school and I am looking to create special games hat will be used with our special needs pupils to get them motivated to learn, use characters they like to create games like counting, using the mouse, using keyboard. I have looked at flash to create resources but I have no knowledge of flash or action scripts can anyone help me please either guide me to someone who will be willing to help or any course in Birmingham that I can attend to help me create and developed theses games.

Thank you
