Fund more training for teachers on neurodivergence

Closed 336 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to fund more comprehensive training programs for teachers on how to effectively support and engage neurodivergent students in the classroom.
Neurodivergence, which includes conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive differences, represents a diverse spectrum of learning needs that we feel are often overlooked or misunderstood in school.
