Why should I take this course?

—

For your students

For your career

"As a high school student myself (Y13 at Taradale High School), I am no stranger to being misunderstood and unfairly labelled due to my neurological differences. These distinctions, however, are not shortcomings; they are what make me unique and valuable."
- Tom Little, Young Neurodiversity Champion
Statistics show that one in five students are neurodiverse, with conditions like autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and giftedness. If students don't get the specialist support and understaning, they can struggle to learn, fit in, and feel valuable.
