“…Amy adds that there are many areas of education where what is good for neurodivergent ākonga is good for all ākonga.

A narrative synthesis of the experience of neurodiverse students in tertiary education found that offering alternative forms of assessment and adaptations to assessment conditions can benefit learners (Clouder et al, 2020).…”

There is growing recognition of the needs of neurodivergent ākonga in tertiary education and the importance of creating an inclusive learning environment. In mid-2021, a small group of interested kaimahi and a neurodivergent ākonga at Otago Polytechnic Te Pūkenga formed a Neurodiversity Community of Practice (NDCoP). The steering group meets regularly to strategise, share good practice and resources, arrange speakers and organise other personal development opportunities for the wider community at OP. In October 2023 the NDCoP hosted the Neuroability Symposium at Otago Polytechnic, with more than 350 in attendance. This article aims to provide a narrative of the development of our NDCoP, present the actions and reflections of some of its members, and include a tertiary learning advisor (TLA) and ākonga perspective. Finally, the article looks ahead to the future of our NDCoP through the eyes of some of its members.
