| Résumé : |
Kate Ripley is a senior specialist Educational Psychologist with a specialism in autism and Dr Cara Osborne is a psychology research associate within a research and evaluation unit. This paper gives data on the experiences of 17 pupils at mainstream secondary school who had been supported at the preschool stage by an early intervention scheme known as TOP (Thomas Outreach Programme) developed in Hampshire. Data were collected from the staff, the pupils and their parents and it is very encouraging that overall the findings were positive both in terms of their academic progress and their views on how they felt about school. Staff had put in place specific strategies to support the pupils in particular areas of school life. The methods used to gain the views of the three types of respondent are likely to prove useful in other studies done by readers. It was not possible to ascertain how TOP support has contributed to these results as there was no comparison group of pupils who had not received TOP support. As it is offered to most children in need of this in the early years, finding a comparative group would have been difficult. |
