I have a son with autism , he attends a mainstream school in colchester. He is quite able academically so would not benefit from specialist school. My issue is childhood is precious, it's a time for fun happy memories. Is my son happy at school ..... No . Is he creating fond memories...... No. Is he accepted and understood....... No. Is it a daily struggle ....... Yes. A school suitable for high functioning autistic children would be fantastic. A chance for them to feel safe, valued, understood and accepted . A place where they can reach their potential , with a smile on their face. Half the stress , half the drama.
