Abstract

The Second Edition of Educating Students on the Autistic Spectrum considers the individual with autism, and offers tried and tested approaches that have worked, giving background information on autism and its impact on the learner. In this new edition, Martin Hanbury has added more information on sensory issues, an increasingly holistic view of the student with autism, new ideas for curriculum planning in mainstream settings, advice on multi-professional working, and guidance on developing positive working relationships with parents and care-givers.
