Dilemmas and Needs of Schooling for:Children with Autism An Investigation Based on Meta-Ethnography Methods
Smooth transition from early years to primary school is a major transition and challenge for children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD)to integrate into society.It is of great practical significance to clarify the enrollment difficulties and the support needs of children with ASD,in order to promote the educational co-prosperity and social equity.Based on the comprehensive perspective of"family-education-society"and the meta-ethnography method,nine representative papers were deeply integrated and constructed,and it is found that there are four major dilemmas in smooth school enrolment for children with ASD:Disconnection,Stigmatization,Power Imbalance and Lack of Support and four key needs:Multi-party Collaboration,Information Sharing,Advance Planning and Provision of support)for the smooth transition of children with ASD.Based on this,a conceptual framework with"school support"as the core is formed,covering three levels:public attitude,institutional design,and social practice.It is designed to systematically reveal why it is difficult for children with ASD to enter school smoothly.Subsequently,a practical path for the entire process of providing stable school support for children with ASD is proposed.
