When teaching children with autism we must be quick to adapt, follow our instinct and go off plan.

Children with autism are colourful - they are often very beautiful and, like the rainbow, they stand out.

My aim is to sort the jumble of information we throw at these children and present it in such a way that they will have a greater chance of achieving independence and fulfilment.

Our visuals must represent the truth and decode the verbal jumble so these children can find the right direction.

Teachers should be made aware of visual stress symptoms and the potential difference coloured lights, overlays and lenses could make to a learners perception.

Adapting our own perception, following rather than leading and building bridges are all keys to helping the child with autism learn.

Are we allowing individuals to develop their talents with our current teaching methods? Is there more or maybe less we should be doing?

The closer we come to understanding the challenges of autism, the better we are placed to accommodate and educate without risking removing that individuality we all love.
