What is the school inclusion program?
Autism SA delivers high-level short term and intensive supports designed to help schools and educators better support children on the autism spectrum and their families.
Autism SA’s highly experienced consultants and facilitators provide a range of services to schools, educators and the families of students with autism so that they can better support children on the spectrum to achieve their goals.
We work collaboratively with the team around an individual, including the student and their family, teachers, school support staff, school leadership, special education co-ordinators and others to develop strategies and implement targeted intervention and support that is appropriate for that individual.
