Autism Myths Busted -

with expert Dr Jo Grace

In this webinar we cover:

  • Examine what current research reveals about the causes of autism.
  • Challenge one of the most harmful myths impacting neurodivergent children.
  • Introduce a simple test to help you determine whether your everyday approaches are supportive or unintentionally counterproductive.
  • Clarify common misunderstandings and share practical strategies to help neurodivergent children — and their peers — better understand one another and thrive.


But first, a little about our wonderful speaker:

Dr Joanna Grace is a leading voice in sensory engagement and inclusive practice. A TEDx speaker and respected author, she also founded The Sensory Projects to advance meaningful inclusion for children and young people.

Her teaching has been recognised by Ofsted as “outstanding,” reflecting her ability to inspire and connect with learners across both mainstream and specialist settings. Drawing on a strong foundation of research, alongside extensive hands-on experience, she brings depth, insight, and credibility to her work.

Joanna’s dedication to inclusion is not only professional but personal. It is grounded in her family’s lived experience of disability and neurodiversity, and enriched by her experience as a foster parent to children with profound disabilities
