Abstract

Traditionally, much advisory literature regarding the education of autistic pupils has been dominated by medical and psychological models often challenged by autistic people (Lawson, 2010; Milton, 2016). In recent years, the involvement of autistic people in the work of the Autism Education Trust (Jones et al. 2012; Milton, 2012) and now the TAE project has resulted in a shift in ethos and emphasis to that more akin to a social model of disability.
