AIT only support children and schools where the child has a diagnosis of Autism. Will this change with EAPDR?

Question:
AIT only support children and schools where the child has a diagnosis of Autism. Will this change with EAPDR?
Answer:

Yes. One of the North Stars of EAPDR is the importance of accessing support without the requirement for a diagnosis. The Local Authority is working with the AIT to commission support for children pre-diagnosis.  This is currently in development and capacity will grow in 2024.  This support will be called Social Communication and Social Interaction support in recognition of the importance of the need rather than the diagnosis being the route to support.
