Résumé : |
The process 0f effectively including children and young people on the autism spectrum in mainstream school environments is widely acknowledged as one 0f the most difficult and complex areas of education. Research suggests that pupils with autism attending mainstream schools are at an increased risk of a range of negative outcomes. However, there are schools where such children thrive, and an important part of developing practice within this field is to share the approaches taken in these settings. This paper presents a ‘saturation’ model encapsulating the work undertaken at Priestnall School, a mainstream secondary school in the north-west of England. Key elements of this model include having a central ‘agent of change’, creating a positive ethos, developing the school environment, training and development of staff, policy development and embedding practice, peer education and awareness, flexible provision, and direct support and intervention. |
