The transition from primary to secondary school can produce stress, depression and anxiety symptoms in students with ASD<\/strong>. These consequences can affect their academic performance leading to school failure or even school dropout or absenteeism.<\/p>\n These facts show the need to introduce changes in the educational context <\/strong>by providing more training actions focused on teachers and classmates in order to improve the interaction with ASD students based on the support, empathy and comprehension of their needs and requirements.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n IPA2 aims at decreasing school vulnerability of students with ASD in the transition from primary to secondary school<\/strong>. To this end, IPA2 is focused on the following objectives:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In order to achieve these objectives, teachers and students will be involved in the co-creation of training materials and training courses<\/strong> that will be uploaded on a special e-learning platform <\/strong>through which all the contents will be accessible to anyone who wishes to consult them. In parallel, activities will be carried out to raise awareness among the population, in particular students and teachers, about the difficulties that students with DSA face at school, especially during the transition from primary to secondary school.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n IPA2 partnership is made up of 6 entities from 5 European countries:<\/p>\n IPA2 \u2013 Inclusion of People with Autism in Europe.
