Autism Spectrum Disorder
Schools can be distressing places for young people with Autism due to academic, social and sensory demands. As they stuggle to cope they may learn behaviours which can be extremely distressing for families and staff. Students with Autism may also struggle with academic achievement when they are unable to demonstrate what they know.
Parents and schools need to make reasonable adjustments to support the learning and behavioural needs of children with Autism.
