    For schools or universities

    School years play a pivotal role in shaping our identities and attitudes toward others. By embracing a neurodiversity-affirming approach in schools or universities, you can cultivate a more inclusive community that celebrates students’ unique strengths and interests while fostering an appreciation of diverse perspectives. Our resources offer guidance on creating an autism-positive learning environment that supports all students.

    Teacher training

    Equip teachers and professors with tailored training in autism education and positive behaviour support strategies to help them better understand and address the unique needs of their Autistic students. We offer flexible training options, including face-to-face sessions, webinars, and e-books that can be purchased for ongoing learning. Contact us today to discuss your needs and request a quote.

    Creating autism friendly spaces

    Develop autism friendly spaces and allow sensory breaks to help Autistic students regulate their experiences and return to learning with focus. Foster a culture of acceptance and respect for neurodiversity by encouraging students to appreciate differences and actively discouraging bullying or teasing.

    Promote inclusion through peer support and activities

    Establish peer support programs to educate neurotypical students about autism and encourage them to assist Autistic classmates, reducing feelings of isolation and fostering understanding. Additionally, ensure extracurricular activities, such as sports, arts, and clubs, are inclusive and accessible to all students, including those on the autism spectrum.
