Abstract
Dr Nick Bowden will be speaking about his research on the impact of health and education-based supports for autistic young people. He will present the findings of a study showing that while Autistic students are suspended and stood down at higher rates than non-autistic students, those with high need education-based funding support (ORS), have substantially lower rates of suspensions. His talk will also highlight the potential for future research into this area to better support the Autistic and autism communities.
