Laura Heaney started this petition to Beth Campagna (Miss)
As a primary school teacher with a son with Aspergers and ADHD and as a mother with both conditions I have become keenly aware of how outdated the knowledge of Headteachers, Senior Management, Teachers, Teaching Assistants, Governors and Lunch-time Supervisors is in regard to Neurodiversity. Neurodiversity includes Autism Spectrum Disorder (including Pathological Demand Avoidance), ADHD (particularly inattentive type), Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. In particular, females and high-functioning pupils are under-recognised and under-supported. This is causing significant anxiety and arguably leading to a home-schooling epidemic with inadequate support to home-schooling families.
