Education- Flexible Options
At BAASS, we recognise that attending school is often extremely difficult for autistic children and sometimes not the best option for many autistic children.
The Department of Education and Training must make reasonable adjustments for any child with a disability to be able to attend mainstream school, per the Disability Discrimination Act and the Disability Standards for Education.
Here we provide some information for various options available to children who need a flexible approach and environment.
More information about your child's rights in education along with tips and strategies for inclusive classroom and school environments can be found here.
Many autistic children are being homeschooled by choice or because school environments are not inclusive and children are being traumatised by attending schools not inclusive to different needs.
Registration for homeschooling in Victoria is a straightforward and simple process. We have included some information below to assist in making an informed decision. Visit our homeschooling page here for more information.
