It should happen all the time.

Autism happens all of the time for an autistic person. Awareness needs to be constant.

18

Id like to think so.

Knowledge and experience and appropriate support of autism has been so lacking in schools in my experience. I want to see a shift in the way autism is regarded (predominantly negative in my experience) and in how support is reviewed (all too often isn't)

19

How will the support of individuals be reviewed? Who assesses whether individuals are receiving their support and what can be done to help them get the right support consistently. I'd like to see these questions answered in the bill.
