Abstract
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) offers novel opportunities for promoting inclusive education, but its use for supporting neurodivergent students is not well understood. This study used a qualitative research approach to examine experiences, perceptions, and support needs in integrating generative AI by schoolteachers working with neurodivergent students. The findings inform a growing need for AI-informed components in teacher training, school policy on responsible AI adoption, and neuro-friendly strategies for supporting neurodiverse learners through ethical and innovative educational technologies.
