Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents itself in many different ways, and teachers must be able to identify individual and shared characteristics to provide proper support. This can often present problems for teachers who lack experience of the entire spectrum, which ranges from supporting those with severe learning difficulties to working with highly able young people. Using real-life examples from their decades of experience, Francine Brower and Keith MacKenzie Cox explain how to identify diverse characteristics of autism, explore key challenges that individuals and schools face and offer practical, effective strategies to support pupils with ASD. Covering a range of autism characteristics, including sensory differences, communication, behaviour and socialisation, this is the ideal book for mainstream and special school teachers looking to improve their special educational needs provision, and develop the best possible learning outcomes for all pupils with ASD.
A beautifully informative and sensitively written book that will assist both parents and professionals to understand and celebrate the differences of children and young people with autism. -- Laura Watkins * CEO of The Donaldson Trust * Based on years of practical experience, this book provides useful insights into the nature of autism and gives helpful guidance for anybody supporting young people with ASD. -- Dr Stephen Tyler * Former Principal, Inscape House, Together Trust *
Francine Brower was previously a headteacher in an ASD specialist school and worked as a Team Leader for the National Autistic Society for over two decades. She is currently a consultant working with schools and individual children. Keith MacKenzie Cox has been the headteacher of three specialist provision settings for pupils with autism.
