PRAC is Western Autistic School\u2019s research unit. It also links with the Autism Teaching Institute, the training arm of Western Autistic School.<\/p>\n
We are concerned with the application of clinical research in autism to real life school environments. Our work is informed by the experience gained in practice at WAS over many years, taking the individual child as the focus of our pedagogy.[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Translating Research to Practice” image=”https:\/\/driftwood.com.au\/autismprac\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/clint-patterson-CgIFBwOkApI-unsplash-scaled.jpg” content_max_width=”626px” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _dynamic_attributes=”link_option_url” _module_preset=”default” body_font=”||||||||” width=”90%” max_width=”90%” link_option_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjEzMyJ9fQ==@” border_radii_image=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” box_shadow_style_image=”preset2″ box_shadow_horizontal_image=”4px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
