The disability royal commission heard horrific stories of harm – now we must move towards repair

I am gathering a list of positive examples of Australian high schools supporting neurodiverse and autistic kids in mainstream settings and without any segregation, whether these are little or big, formal or informal. I would be grateful for any examples! Thank you.
