Abstract
This research focused on the educational provision for children on the autism spectrum coming from marginalised families. For this project we classified marginalisation as families coming from minority ethnic communities, those who have English as additional language, families from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, and children who are in social care. We surveyed the views of educational professionals, interviewed parents/ carers and teaching professionals, as well as consulting with a wide range of educational professionals. Our research highlighted the impact of marginalisation for these children and their families more broadly as well as within education context. We also identified examples of good practice that are already being used in some settings, and what families and professionals consider is required to improve the current provision.
