Al-Ghani, University Lecturer in Autism, Autism trainer and international author of books on ASD This book provides a fascinating insight into Autism for trainee teachers and practising teachers wishing to increase their understanding of autism and develop their inclusive practice. As well as giving detailed descriptions of how autism may affect the individual, scenarios and case studies are included which illustrate the issues raised. Throughout the book thought provoking questions for self-reflection and discussion are suggested making this book an invaluable resource for professionals planning training courses. -- Joy Beaney, Autism Training Consultancy This book provides a framework for effective training around autism for teachers. Its author has a PhD in autism, is a lecturer in teacher development and is a parent of a child with autism... Lawrence points out that, although autism education is now a required element in initial teacher education, the time that can be allocated to it is very restricted. In response to this, she has collated material for training sessions both for trainee teachers and for continuing professional development... Case studies and short tasks are included to guide the reader to a deeper understanding of how students with autism experience life in school and how to manage this as an informed professional... This is a very useful, accessible and informative resource that effectively combines research and practice. * SEN Magazine *
