Navigating Transitions: Supporting Autistic Students Through Change.

This session will focus on the different types of transitions experienced by autistic students, ranging from daily routine changes to major life events such as changing schools. We will review how these transitions can impact students, potentially leading to increased anxiety and stress. Research indicates that facilitating successful transitions is essential for the overall well-being and academic achievement of autistic students.

We will explore practical approaches to support autistic students during transitions, including the use of visuals, providing advance notice of changes, and establishing a predictable and structured environment.
