The programme will champion asset-based approaches, empowering ND pupils; improving understanding of their needs; raising awareness of neurodiversity; and making schools more inclusive environments. The commissioning of an Evaluation & Learning Partner is integral for the VRU to understand the implementation and key learning from the Difference Matters programme.
