She has a long interest in the field of autism and a particular interest in siblings. In this paper, she describes four Sibgroups set up in Berkshire and Scotland. These were weekly groups for brothers and sisters of children on the autism spectrum. Fiona provides details of the content of the sessions and the instruments used to measure the participants’ views on autism and their relationship with their brother or sister. This is a very useful paper for anyone involved in supporting families and children to provide ideas on how to elicit their views and the areas in which they may require knowledge and support.

What do students with Asperger syndrome or high functioning autism want at college and university? (in their own words) / Luke BEARDON in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 10-2 (Octobre 2009)

Consequently, knowledge of best practice in further and higher education for learners with ASIHEA, which is directly informed by the student voice, remains limited. This study by staff at Sheffield Hallam University, explored the perceptions of 238 adults with AS/HFA about challenges and support at college and university. Difficulties relating to social interaction, the social environment, other people’s understanding of AS/HFA, and course structure and curriculum requirements were cited most frequently. Good practice suggestions are made arising from data providing evidence on which to base provision.

The Hollies Booster Class: specialised provision to maximise the potential of children on the autism spectrum to access education in a mainstream school / Dyfi ALLEN in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 10-2 (Octobre 2009)

The service provides continuing support and advice to mainstream schools through regular visits at a frequency that is dependent on the needs of the child. After working successfully with a large number of children, the Service became aware that there was a group of children who required more support than could be provided in weekly visits. The service therefore created an opportunity for these children and a designated Learning Support Assistant (LSA) from their mainstream school to attend weekly booster sessions at the Hollies special school. During these sessions they would be taught to use autism specific strategies together. The Welsh Assembly Government had invited special schools to prepare bids for a grant under the heading of ‘Unlocking the Potential of Special Schools’. The Hollies jumped at this opportunity to forward their proposal to open the Booster Class. The Welsh Assembly awarded a grant for three years. The Booster Class is financed entirely by this grant and works with the local education authority to ensure that equitable access to the class is maintained. It has now been in operation for over two years and has achieved a high level of success. This paper gives details of how t operates and details of what t has achieved.

She begins by presenting some hard facts about the current state of services for this population. There are three times as many adults as children in most populations, and 50 there are three times as many adults on the autism spectrum as children. Yet often, there is more support specific to autism, more interventions and more research on services for children. This paper relates to the situation in Canada, but readers elsewhere will recognise familiar themes and short-comings in their countries too. From this pessimistic starting point, the author then gives details of the work of the Stars for Life Foundation set up specifically for adults on the autism spectrum. She gives the key principles which underpin the development of the service which readers will find helpful in considering support in their own areas and settings.

Adult style: What helps to facilitate interaction and communication with children on the autism spectrum? / Mary MCATEER in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 10-2 (Octobre 2009)

The study was part of her Masters degree, supervised by Dr Mary MacAteer. Melanie worked with staff in an ail-age special school for children with autism and learning disabilities. Studies have shown that the way we interact with children on the autism spectrum can either facilitate or inhibit their social communication and a number of key principles have been identified which are thought to be good practice. The first part of the paper s written by Melanie and explains the details of the intervention (adult—child interaction training), how the study was set up, and its theoretical underpinning. The second part of the paper, written by both Melanie and Mary presents and discusses the findings from the project and makes recommendations for practice and future studies. it provides a framework against which to consider adult style and encourages readers to explore this further in their own settings.

A study into the beliefs relating to causation and the autism spectrum within Asian and White British families living in Manchester / Mischa MOCKETT in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 10-2 (Octobre 2009)

It is still the case that much of the material and training available for parents is written in English and from a Western perspective. Studies such as the one reported here are therefore vital to examine what changes need to be made when designing and delivering services for families and children from other ethnic groups. More work needs to be done in this area — both in terms of exploring how life is for families from different ethnic groups and how services and materials need to be adapted if aIl children and families are to access and receive the services they require. This paper might be a catalyst for readers to consider how they currently address the needs of families with different cultures, languages, beliefs and systems.

The aim was to teach knowledge and skills relating to sexual health and relationships. It became apparent that there was a need for suitable materials and resources to address the communication, social understanding and problem-solving difficulties these young adults often experience. In recognition of this, there has been a growing number of publications specifically on sexuality and the autism spectrum, on which we can now base our practice (eg Grieve et al, 2007; Henault, 2006; Lawson, 2005; Pukki, 2003).
