World Autism Acceptance Week
World Autism Acceptance Week 2022 ran from 28 March to 3 April. The event promotes acceptance of autism and helps improve the lives of autistic children in the UK.
How schools can get involved
We’d love schools to promote acceptance of autism and help improve the lives of autistic children in the UK. One in 100 children are autistic and you most likely have autistic children in your school. The National Autistic Society has useful free school materials (external link).
Autism Acceptance Week resources
Schools can download an age-appropriate pack for their setting from Autism Education Trust regarding Autism Acceptance Week:
Neurodiversity Celebration Week (21-27 March)
Information, resources and posters are available on the Neurodiversity Celebration Week website (external link).
Please note: although these are the suggested weeks, please do plan your activities when it fits in best with your school calendar.
