Description

Part of the How to Help series of books exploring issues commonly faced by children and young people at home and in school, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) offers a complete introduction to this complex and often confusing topic. A lack of clarity can arise for many reasons, including the broad spectrum of characteristics and symptoms that can be represented within an ASD diagnosis (ranging from the very severe, requiring 24-hour monitoring, to the mild but no less important, where the individual can be successfully included in education and society), and the many competing interventions and treatments all purporting to be successful. Arguing that every child and young person with autism can and should lead an inclusive and fulfilling life, Jo-Ann Page and Gavin Reid show that it is up to us as adults to ensure that this is possible - and show how parents, carers, teachers and schools can help.

Author Biography:

JO-ANN PAGE is the founder and Clinical Director of Jo-Page Inclusion, a consultancy working to help young people with special educational needs and disabilities. Jo practices throughout the UK, Middle East and Africa, and has a wealth of experience specialising in ASD, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia. She is also a teacher and was Director of Inclusive Education for a global education provider. GAVIN REID is a parent of a young man who was diagnosed at an early age with autism. Unable to find accurate information about his son's condition, Gavin left classroom teaching and trained as an Educational Psychologist. He subsequently specialised in dyslexia, but he maintained a personal and professional interest in autism by giving talks to societies and parent groups. He also equipped himself professionally to assess and diagnose ASD and has supported many parents and young people in this way.
