Autism Good Practice Guidance for Schools
This was published in April 2022 and aims to provide guidance to help school leaders, teachers, SNAs and other school staff to respond to the needs of students with autism. The guidance provides information on evidence-based whole-school and individualised approaches to effective intervention.

It provides information and support across eight key areas of practice, as follows:
Learning Environment
Language and Communication Development
Social Development
Emotional Development
Sensory Processing
Functional Skills for Daily Living
Academic Development
Behavioural Development
Looking after yourself, your loved ones & your mental wellbeing
