I have spent time at her school and find they learn by participation more than in England. They also seem to do more projects etc, do presentations and learn life skills without knowing it. It will vary from school to school, all I can say is from our point of veiw we are all very happy!!

My only critisism is lack of funding for kids on the autistic spectrum, they have to fall really behind before anything is done and that stinks
However if your kids are fully functioning you'll be right
