Teacher training for Neurological children.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

My son has gone through mainstream primary school with very little support and understanding about his ADHD/Autism. More training needs to happen for ALL staff teaching techniques to de-escalate and understand sensory, emotional & social needs.
Make neurological training compulsory for all teachers and support staff.
