Neuroinclusive Education Network (NEN)

Neuroinclusive Education Network (NEN), formerly The Autism Education Trust, is part of the National Autistic Society. Through evidence-based training and collaboration, we help Local Authorities, Multi Academy Trusts (MATs), training organisations, schools and education professionals to create inclusive environments where every neurodivergent learner can thrive. <SEND>

Autism expertise remains at our core, strengthened by an inclusive perspective that supports wider neurodivergence including learners with ADHD, dyslexia and Tourette Syndrome.

The NEN works across the education system to support a broad community of professionals and organisations, including:

  • local authorities and system leaders
  • early years settings, schools and colleges
  • educational professionals such as teachers, SENCOs and support staff
  • health and social care practitioners involved in supporting learners
