Policing attracts a particularly wide neurodiversity profile in its recruits, the job being so varied and not concentrating on any one particular set of skills. So this insight into how we work and how Autism can be identified but importantly learning how to be inclusive in our teaching and training is six useful for those teaching and training our new recruits.
