Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / The policy for Inclusive Education in South Africa, the White Paper 6, states that
all children can learn with support. Research suggests that there is a lack of access to education
and resources for children with ASD living in low socio-economic communities. Education
support services are under-resourced and unable to deal with the enormous number of learners
with special needs. Globally, there is an appalling lack of dedicated school and learning facilities
for children affected by autism. In special needs schools, children with autism are placed in classes
with children with other disabilities. This is often as a result of either little understanding of their
learning needs or resource constraints such as no schools close by to accommodate autistic
learners.
