Montessori Education for Autism (MEfA): making a difference for people with autistic spectrum disorders and spikey sensory profiles

 HAPPY 2012! - AND NOW FOR INDIA!

MEfA will be visiting Chennai, India later this month and will be giving a keynote lecture and workshop on ‘Out of Education and Into Employment’ for students with special educational needs and disabilities to an International audience of policy makers, employers, trainers and educators.

It will be a huge privilege to advise the delegates about the excellent education and rehabilitation facilities about we have observed and to assist their careful consideration of the routes they are taking to ensure their students are fit for work.

Do you have any further advice, or perhaps a message of encouragement for the international conference delegates? We would love to take with us a bundle of your good wishes!

Happy 2012 to our MEfA friends everywhere!  

MONTESSORI EDUCATION FOR AUTISM (MEfA)

We aim to advance the education of children with autism (and conditions related to autism) through methods of learning and education developed by Maria Montessori and in connection with this:

  • to provide advice and support to families and carers of children with Autism;
  • to provide information, advisory and advocacy services, training, day services, education, leisure and recreation for children with autism and to support others making similar provision;
  • to promote, conduct and engage in research into autism, and to publish the useful results of such research;
  • to collect and disseminate information relating to autism and to exchange such information with other bodies having similar objects;
  • to provide financial assistance, to make grants, loans and donations and to provide equipment and apparatus.

We are thrilled to announce that Phyllis Wallbank MBE, the world-renowned Montessorian, is the patron of MEfA.
