Every Child Deserves to Succeed at School 

At Autism Queensland, we believe every child should have the chance to learn, belong, and thrive. Each year, we work with thousands of Queensland schools and educators to support the inclusion of autistic students in mainstream classrooms. 

But for some students, no matter how great the school or how supportive the teachers, these classrooms simply aren’t the right environment.

About the AQ Foundation

The AQ Foundation awards annual bursaries to help families experiencing financial hardship, for whom school fees are a barrier to enrolling or remaining at an Autism Queensland School. Funded through community, corporate and philanthropic donations, these bursaries provide financial assistance towards tuition fees for Prep to Year 12 students across all AQ campuses in Queensland, including Distance Education.

Who you're helping

The AQ Foundation Bursary is awarded to Queensland families who meet strict eligibility criteria, with priority given to those most at risk, families on low incomes, living in regional and remote communities, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families. 

Your gift provides children with the chance to learn at an Autism Queensland School. A safe, specialised environment where they are understood, supported, and given every opportunity to succeed. 

The evidence shows that students at risk can thrive in the small, individualised, multidisciplinary setting of a specialised school — a place where children feel safe, included, and understood.

At an Autism Queensland School, learning is tailored, wellbeing is supported, and potential can truly be unlocked. 

Right now, many families who need this support cannot afford it. Children are changing schools again and again because they aren’t getting the help they need. That’s why the AQ Foundation exists — to ensure financial hardship never stands in the way of an autistic child’s right to learn, belong, and succeed at school.

Without support, vulnerable autistic children risk leaving school altogether, missing out on the chance to learn, belong, and thrive.
