Abstract

This chapter discusses the benefits of embracing the theory of monotropism (Murray et al., 2005) and the associated phenomenon of flow for autistic and ADHD young people in educational settings. We also draw attention to why we need to reframe the narrative around autism. A deeper understanding of monotropism can support the wellbeing of young people and improve educational outcomes by setting up radically inclusive learning environments and working collaboratively.
