Firstly, consider if this is really an autism issue – these times stressful for everyone.
Rather than putting all the focus on schools and universities whose primary role is to educate, consider this steps can and should be taken by other parties. For example, parents explaining the change and involving the young person in it.
I might also suggest it’s important to consider how we respond to stress. Stress can be good in focusing the mind – if someone isn’t in any way stressful, is it really worth doing?
