It’s World Autism Awareness Day.

1 in 100 people are autistic. Learning should work for all of them, not just today.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week. March 16 - 20

Our toolkit finds these issues across Moodle courses and fixes them at scale. One fix still makes a real difference.

Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. 1 in 6 children have a developmental disability. 1B+ people worldwide live with a disability. 100% of us benefit from inclusive design. Brickfield Education Labs logo bottom right.

1 in 6 children has a developmental disability. Most barriers they face are about design, not disability.
