Plans for new autistic led school to open in Hampshire called Koala Academy

Hello fellow autistic people, I thought you may be interested in this video about an autistic led school:

Sounds very exciting! There is potential for an education system that actually nurtures our monotropic neurodivergent brains!

  • So I am. Hopefully by being in an autistic led school these children should be able to thrive with their neurokin in spaces designed for their neurology.

    I understand what you mean about being autistic in a non autistic world, everything is designed for the needs of the predominant neuro type as opposed to minority groups such as our autistic community.

     I hope you feel that this online autistic community is easier to engage with and provides you with relief from the outside non autistic world.
