What an absolutely lush conversation! It was great to get to know more about Laura, and to see how she is using her experience, insight and passion to educate, help and support so many others across the globe! From her awesome website: I have been working with children and young people with autism and other special needs for over 20 years. I started my teaching career in Further Education, and have worked in the Supported Learning Department of 2 large Mainstream Colleges teaching Numeracy, Literacy, Life Skills and Childcare. I also worked as the Life Skills Co-ordinator at a residential college for young people with severe physical disabilities. My passion has always been working with young people with autism - I believe that they have so much to offer, and yet the education system often fails them because staff do not have the right skills and experience. This is something I am passionate about changing!
