This research is being supported by the General Teaching Council Scotland’s “Teachers as Researchers” initiative, thanks also to Dr Catriona Stewart from Scottish Woman’s Autism Network (SWAN) for her help with this questionnaire.
We wish to understand how well prepared you, identifying as an autistic or dyslexic woman felt (or feel) on transitioning into Tertiary Education. Do you feel you have/had sufficient skills and access to the right support to draw on in order to cope with the demands of further/higher education or apprenticeship?
The main objectives that we want to address through the questionnaire are:
* How well prepared do women feel when they move into Tertiary Education? * Can knowledge learnt in school transfer into skills which will help to cope with the demands of Tertiary Education?
Based on feedback from the questionnaires, we aim to develop a set of guidelines to support autistic and dyslexic women transitioning to further/higher education.
All questionnaires will be kept completely anonymous and confidential on password protected computers and used only for this research project.
By completing the questionnaire you consent to your responses being used for the research project.
