Autism Inclusion Teachers (AIT’s) are given time each week in their AIT roles to focus on strengthening our school community’s inclusion of students on the autism spectrum.

The Department for Education provides an Autism Inclusion Multidisciplinary (AIM) team to support them in the AIT roles. The team includes, senior advisor educators, developmental educator, psychologist, occupational therapist, speech pathologist and an Aboriginal cultural project officer. The information from the AIM team is evidence-based and informed by the autistic and autism community.

The role as an AIT is to pass on information, resources and training they receive from the AIM team to other staff and parents.

Chris Hansen is our AIT teacher and if you have any questions, want to chat, need help with forms or appointments or some information; please ring the office to make an appointment with himr

Chris is available every Friday in his role. Feel free to contact him and organise a time that works for everyone.

Regards,

Chris Hansen
