SALP has a dedicated facility on the school site that provides the opportunity for specialist staff to run individually tailored education programs for students in the program. The facility contains teaching spaces, socialisation spaces, ICT resources and engagement resources that enable staff to teach a Social Thinking Curriculum (Michelle Garcia Winner), and provide a safe space for students to practice these skills.<\/p>\n

\n\u2013 Student has been diagnosed as being on the\u00a0 Autism Spectrum
\n\u2013 Student is academically capable of understanding and coping with grade level content and tasks
\n\u2013 Behaviour is managed independently or through the use of prompts \/ strategies
