That the Parliament commends West Lothian College for introducing a cyber security course for neurodiverse young people; understands that the course is designed for those with, for example, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, who learn and process information differently; notes that the college is working in partnership with the Supported Employment Service at West Lothian Council and Donaldson’s Trust, and understands that, as well as learning about cyber security, students will develop interpersonal and meta skills.
