Eating

Many of our pupils can restrict their food intake, they can have little interest in eating a varied diet.  This can be for a number of reasons, including sensory sensitivity, many children will prefer to eat familiar safe foods.  Autistic people are more likely to develop an avoidant and/or restrictive disorder.  ARFID is a charity dedicated to raising awareness of this, and have lots of information.
