Autism Inclusion Teacher

Autism Inclusion Teachers are a new, nation-leading initiative which aims to build understanding and knowledge to support autistic children and young people.

Every public primary school in South Australia will appoint an Autism Inclusion Teacher. Our Autism Inclusion Teacher will take on the role (1 day per week / 1 day per fortnight) from Term 1 2023. We are excited to annouce that Fiona Prentice has sucessfully won this role. 

It is anticipated that Autism Inclusion Teachers will first build their own teaching expertise, knowledge and understanding of autism through engaging in formal learning offerings and participation in the Autism Inclusion Teacher networks. To improve knowledge and practice across the school, Autism Inclusion Teachers will then be encouraged to share their learnings and resources with their colleagues to utilise in teaching autistic children and young people in their own classes.
