Recommendation 27

Alongside greater weight being given to the views of parents, more mandatory training must be given to all those who act as gatekeepers to ensure they have an up to date understanding of neurodevelopmental conditions. While it is to be expected that some will adapt to change more quickly than others it should not be acceptable for some not to adapt at all. When it comes to teachers, for example, there should be an expectation that all teachers understand how to support neurodivergent children.
