In celebration of World Autism Week 2016, the MyAV·¶ Centre for Research in Autism and Education (CRAE) released a film produced from our âSeeing the World Differentlyâ project.
The film helps viewers understand what autism feels like by talking to pupils on the autism spectrum at the Hendon Autism Resourced Provision (HARP) within Hendon School in north London. Robyn Steward, Autism and Aspergerâs trainer, explains that autistic people can see the world differently through their senses, and highlightsÌęthe importance of learning about individual people.Ìę
Sensory Sensitivity at Hendon Autism Resourced Provision

This video forms part of CRAEâs ââÌęproject, funded by the Medical Research Council. The project aims to uncover why sensory symptoms often occur in autism, and the CRAE research team is giving autistic and non-autistic children at the MyAV·¶ Institute of Education, at home or at school, a series of fun computer-based tasks designed to find out more about how we all âsee the world differentlyâ.
" When youâve met one person on the autism spectrum, youâve met one person on the autism spectrum â everybody is different.â
