North Ainslie autism unit

MR STEFANIAK: In relation to Mr Wood's question on autism, my department has made no change to the staffing allocation of the North Ainslie Primary School autism unit, which is a unit of two children, staffed by a full-time teacher and a full-time special teachers assistant. In addition, the department actually pays for a consultant from Sydney to visit the unit each term.

It is my understanding that Fabric has provided some additional support to the unit. That is an arrangement made between parents and Fabric. I understand that there may have been some reduction in that support. My colleague, Mr Moore, wants to look into that and, if need be, either he or I will provide Mr Wood with further information on that point next week.
