The AutismCatalyst project aims to foster an inclusive educational environment for students aged 15–17 with Level 1 ASD in mainstream schools. Its key objectives are to equip teachers with practical tools and strategies for targeted career guidance and psychological support, to reduce early school dropout, and to promote a more inclusive and diverse school culture. Through tailored interventions, the project seeks to improve the academic, emotional, and career prospects of students with ASD. 
The primary objective of this project is to equip both mainstream and Special Educational Needs (SEN) teachers with the competences and tools to support the career development, social-emotional learning, and resilience of students with Level 1 ASD. 
The secondary objective of the project is to reduce early school dropout among students aged 15–17 with Level 1 ASD by providing personalised, inclusive interventions that enhance their self-awareness, engagement, and employability prospects.
