Special Education
Autism Pathway
Every child deserves an education built around their individual needs. This pathway brings together specialist schools and in-school support services designed to help students with autism learn and thrive.

Finding the right school environment is one of the most important decisions a family makes. The services in this pathway are here to help you understand what is available and find the best fit for your child.
What to Expect
Educational support for children with autism at QF spans a range of settings, from specialist schools dedicated entirely to students with autism, to inclusive mainstream environments with tailored in-school support. The right option depends on your child's individual profile, their level of need, and where they are in their development.
Across QF, learning is shaped around each student through personalized learning plans that are regularly reviewed and updated. These plans reflect not just academic targets but also social, emotional, and developmental goals, and are built in close collaboration with families.
How QF Supports You
02QF operates an ecosystem of specialist and inclusive schools, alongside in-school support services, giving families a range of options depending on their child's needs.
