Andy Pitts M.Ed autism, Head Teacher, The Birches Specialist Support Primary School, Manchester
As head teacher of a specialist support primary school which has amongst its numbers over 50 pupils with autism I can see a place for this book on the shelves of our resource library. It would be a useful addition to support both parents and practitioners. Easy to read, with bite size nuggets of useful information, the book flows logically, touching on the key areas involved in supporting children with autism. The book provides a basic introduction to the subject of autism, an overview and some manageable strategies and tips to implement .

Sam has set out in an easily accessible and un-daunting way a useful guide book or check list for the teacher wishing to know she has -˜got it right.' The book details the key areas that need to be in place to maximise the potential for pupils to make progress and goes on to tell you what you can do to support those learning areas.
